About the Center
Myotonic dystrophy (DM) is the most common cause of adult muscular dystrophy and has a surprisingly high prevalence in New York State, of approximately one in 2,100 people. The RNA Institute was awarded seed funding from The Marigold Foundation to help develop a Center for Myotonic Dystrophy.
New York Myotonic Dystrophy Center (NY DM Center) will serve as a hub for academic, clinical and industrial collaborative partnerships to increase research, educational and clinical opportunities in myotonic dystrophy.
