We are very pleased that we have just passed €100,000 raised for our upcoming research project at Tampere University. We are now halfway to having important research into possible genetic factors involved in PFS being funded.
This is an outstanding effort given this project only launched six weeks ago.
We are thankful to all supporters for their contributions, particularly donors who have contributed significant amounts.
We encourage all patients, their families and loved ones to contribute where possible.
If we reached our fundraising target today, however, we would only be able to proceed with roughly half our target population size.
We have still only received 70 applications to participate in this project, so we encourage all patients to volunteer where possible. Twins affected by PFS are of particular interest.
It does not cost anything to participate and you do not need to travel.
A blood collection kit will be sent to you at home, for free, if you wish to participate. The cost of shipping this kit back to our third-party lab partner is also covered.
If you are experiencing PFS symptoms, please apply to participate here.
