MONTHLY ZOOM CHAT

The International FOXP1 foundation hosts a bi-monthly zoom chat on the third Saturday of every other month.  They are informal chats, sometimes with speakers, and have been very helpful in sharing information and stories about our Foxes.  If you are interested in joining the zoom, you can register and RSVP right on our website, under Join Us, Events. The link is also posted below.  

The next zoom will be held on Saturday, June 18 at 3:00pm EST.  Please join us!

RARE-X DATA COLLECTION PROGRAM

The data collection program is still going strong and several more of our families have enrolled since last month.  Thank you to those who have taken the time to enroll and help move research forward.  As of now, the US is leading enrollment with 14 families, and the UK closely behind with 6 (as shown with the graph pictured).  It would be great to see a bigger scope of our families throughout the world.

If you are still unsure about why you should enroll in our data collection program, one big incentive is that having a robust database will enable the International FOXP1 Foundation to generate more interest from clinicians, researchers, and pharmaceutical developers to research, test, and develop drugs, therapies, and a FOXP1 natural history study.

If you have still not viewed the webinar explaining the program, there is a link below to the video on our foundation website, as well as the link to the enrollment form.  Let's take advantage of the opportunity this program presents to the community.
