3q29 Foundation Information

The mission of the 3q29 Foundation is to create a path to treatment for chromosome 3q29 syndromes through funding research, community-building, and increasing access to information and resources. We're a growing community of researchers, parents, and people living with a 3q29 condition. Until 2005, no one had even heard of 3q29 deletion or duplication (what occurs when a tiny bit of genetic material on the 3rd chromosome is either absent or doubled). Very little information was available about what to expect upon diagnosis. In truth, we still don't know as much as we'd like - but we're working on it. And we're making it easier to get the knowledge, resources, and connection people need in one place.
