Latest issue - Target Research 2012 (1 of 4)
In Target Research read the positive news of steps that are being made towards treatments for neuromuscular conditions. The main feature of this issue is about patient registries. These databases contain information about individuals affected by a particular condition and are crucial for getting clinical trials under way quickly. Find out which patient registries are currently available, those that are coming soon and how to register your details. We also feature the results of myotonic dystrophy research that we have been funding in Glasgow.
