New CIHR-funded Burden of Inherited Neuromuscular Disease (BIND) Study: Assessing the Indirect Socio-Economic Burden of Inherited Neuromuscular Diseases

New CIHR-funded Burden of Inherited Neuromuscular Disease (BIND) Study: Assessing the Indirect Socio-Economic Burden of Inherited Neuromuscular Diseases

Led by NMD4C steering committee member Dr. Jodi Warman Chardon, this project has been awarded $449,030 over a 3-year period. The project’s goal is to assess the social and economic burden of Canadians living with neuromuscular disorders by using web-based surveys to assess quality-of-life, healthcare resource use, work productivity, and effect on schooling and careers.

Please share this study opportunity with those affected by NMDs and their families within your network!
