Sponsors & Partners
The mission of SLC6A1 Europe is to advance scientific research into SLC6A1-related neurodevelopmental disorder (SLC6A1-NDD), with the ultimate goal of developing effective treatments and improving the lives of affected individuals and their families.
Fundraising to support scientific research is at the heart of our mission. Through the generosity of sponsors, partners and donors, we aim to provide financial support for research projects, encourage international scientific collaboration and help accelerate progress towards new therapies.
We also bring families, researchers and healthcare professionals together, promote awareness and facilitate the exchange of knowledge across Europe.
Every contribution helps us move closer to a future with better treatments for people living with SLC6A1-NDD.
