Global Registry For Inherited Neuropathies: Your Questions Answered

Why are we asking you to join our registry? It’s simple. Without you, researchers won’t have the essential patient information to develop the drugs, gene therapy, and clinical trials for Charcot-Marie-Tooth and other inherited neuropathies.
This is why the Hereditary Neuropathy Foundation (HNF) created the Global Registry for Inherited Neuropathies (GRIN). The registry collects the historical, clinical, and genetic information on patients diagnosed with the various forms of inherited neuropathies to help advance therapy development for these debilitating disorders. We understand there may be some hesitation joining our registry. To help mitigate any concerns, we’ve have the answers to your most common questions.
