We recently launched our new Discovery Grants program, an initiative focused on funding foundational and translational research that helps move ASXL-related disorders closer to future treatments.

As part of the our $435,000 research funding commitment for 2026, $60,000 has been awarded to Dr. Stephanie Bielas at the University of Michigan Medical School to support research into how pathogenic ASXL3 variants alter neuronal cell function in Bainbridge-Ropers Syndrome (ASXL3).

The project focuses on understanding the underlying biology of ASXL3-related disorders, work that is essential for future therapeutic development and improving our understanding of disease mechanisms.

At a time when many areas of rare disease research are facing increasing funding pressures, we believe continued investment in early-stage scientific discovery is critically important.
