RaDiChal, that is an international genetic therapy project competition is held every year among universities and students to provide special solutions to rare genetic diseases. In this competition, as a rule 3 different rare diseases are determined, then the teams opt for one of these diseases and offer the treatment methods that can be a solution to that disease, and in addition, they try to carry out awareness studies of this disease.
Huntington’s disease is one of the three rare diseases in The Fourth RaDiChal competition this year. Huntington’s disease is a rare, inherited disease that has a wide impact on a person’s functional abilities by causing the progressive breakdown of nerve cells in the brain and results in movement, thinking and psychiatric disorders. The EDITOSOME team, which has taken place in this year’s competition and worked on Huntington’s disease, is planning an 8-week seminar for the social awareness studies. The first part of the long-term seminar, which appeals to different segments, was held on May 26.
It is not late to attend the seminar, which will start from the genetic basis of the disease, examine the current treatment approaches, and continue with the various problems caused by the disease in patients and around, as well as the importance of counseling.
