The Lysosomal Storage Disorders Program is a national and international resource for the diagnostic evaluation of genetic neurodegenerative disorders for both pediatric and adult patients and their families.
In addition to evaluation and diagnosis, specialized care is delivered to patients and families with lysosomal storage disorders, including Fabry, Gaucher, Pompe, MPS, Mucolipidosis IV, and Neuronal Ceroid Lipofucsinoses (NCL) diseases.
Clinical care and participation in clinical research are aimed at better characterizing the phenotypic variability and natural history of these disorders and in the evaluation of therapies including enzyme replacement therapy and small molecules. Genetic counseling is also an area of expertise.
