Description

PRF’s mission is to discover the cure and effective treatment for Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (Progeria) and its aging related disorders. Progeria is a fatal, rapid aging syndrome that afflicts children, who die of heart disease at an average age of 13. Finding the cure for Progeria may also help millions of adults with heart disease and other aging-related conditions.
