@cmmit_mu FACE it to make #ChildhoodDementia impossible to ignore. Over 70 genetic conditions cause childhood dementia, most won't live to adulthood. More research & better is support needed. @cmmit_mu @UTAS @Child_Dementia exploring if our genetic white out can help #faceit

Thanks @ACurrentAffair9 for raising awareness of #ChildhoodDementia New research led by @UTAS_ involves @cmmit_mu exploring if genetic ‘whiteout’ might be an effective therapy. 🎥@cmmit_mu @MurdochUni + @PerronInstitute's Dr @MayThandarAung7 in story nine.social/c58
"It's terminal. There's no treatment, there's no cure." Renee Staska never knew dementia affected kids, but all three of her children now have the disease and aren't expected to live past their teens. FULL STORY: nine.social/c58 #9ACA

Just a few of the #RareDiseases we research into here at @cmmit_mu with the support of @MurdochUni & @PerronInstitute. We believe no one should be left behind, everyone deserves the chance to receive a diagnosis & access potential treatments #RareDiseaseDay #RareDiseaseDay2023
