Developing sensitive endpoints for respiratory disease progression in children with neuromuscular diseaseWe hope that through earlier diagnosis and treatment of muscle weakness during sleep, we can prevent future lung failure in children with neuromuscular disorders.
The discoveries that have set our research apart primarily relate to the factors early in life that cause life-long respiratory problems.
