Research

The Phelan-McDermid Syndrome Foundation (PMSF) works closely with researchers, pharmacological companies, biotechnology, academic institutions, and other external scientists with the ultimate goal of finding effective treatments for Phelan-McDermid syndrome (PMS).

The PMSF contributes to research by breaking down barriers to patient participation.  We provide information and access to research opportunities as well as offer financial assistance for travel costs to certain research sites. We work with our international scientific advisory committee (SAC) to set strategic goals in research and science for the PMSF and to stay informed of international PMS projects and research.

The Foundation maintains a current list of clinical trials here.
