Thrilled to announce that @LUMC_Leiden and @DuchenneDF have secured funding to further continue deep phenotyping of the brain in Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy.
🤝 This will further enhance the understanding of brain involvement in DMD and BMD.

Last week, the BIND project was presented at the 8th @EPNSnews Research Meeting by Dr. Jos Hendriksen, with remote input from Prof. Eugenio Mercuri.
We are grateful for this opportunity to share ongoing research in brain related comorbidities in Duchenne and Becker MD.
We had an incredible experience at the 2023 Brain Innovation Days, and are looking forward to this year's #BIDays.
The 2024 edition takes place 13-14 November 2024 in Brussels, under the overarching theme 'Navigating the Brain Across a Lifetime'
