Congratulations to Sophia who has been awarded the degree of PhD today. This a fantastic achievement and one we can all take great pride in as all your efforts funded her studies.
This is an important career step for Sophia and rewards her exceptional work on developing gene therapy to treat visual failure in Batten disease, over the past 3 years. It brings us closer to our aim to find potential therapies and ultimately a cure.
With your support we can help support families living with the devastating diagnosis of Batten disease
