Welcome to SCN2A Australia
We are parents of children who have SCN2A. Although our children have all had varying journeys, they are affected by SCN2A a devastating genetic mutation that causes death and severe disability for many children. We are dedicated to helping to develop treatments for SCN2A and genetic epilepsies and helping those working on and affected by genetic epilepsies better understand the conditions and live better lives.
We work with families, researchers, clinicians and professional bodies to improve the lives of those who have SCN2A and their families.
Connect with us via Facebook to Twitter to join us in our mission and keep up with the latest updates.
We also produce a podcast and a series of webinars on SCN2A and genetic epilepsies.
