This research update feels different, but after 5 years of supporting ‘s CDH genetic research, we are thrilled to share their findings with you which were recently published in the American Journal of Medical Genetics! Brief summary below, but the entire paper can be downloaded at the link in our bio!

A newly published study analyzing over 500 patients found that genetic factors may play a role in up to 61% of congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) cases—including many previously considered “isolated.” This research highlights the complexity of CDH and the importance of continued investment in genetic discovery and innovation.

At the Fore Hadley Foundation, this is exactly why we fund research—to better understand CDH, improve outcomes, and ultimately bring hope to families facing it every day.

We’re so incredibly encouraged by the progress—and are doubling down our investment to further move the needle!!
