Global Registry for COL6-related dystrophies

September 12th, 2019

The Global Registry for COL6-related dystrophies is a research database for individuals who have been diagnosed with Bethlem Myopathy, Ullrich Congenital Muscular Dystrophy (UCMD) or an intermediate form of these conditions.  The registry team is based at Newcastle University, UK.  The registry aims to; improve clinical trial readiness, encourage and facilitate further research into the COL6 related dystrophies, provide researchers with data to support their research and assist doctors and other health professionals by providing them with up-to-date information on managing COL6-related dystrophies, to help them deliver better standards of care for their patients.   For more information on how to participate please visit www.collagen6.org or contact the curator at collagen6registry@ncl.ac.uk
