New federal research into spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is crucial in addressing SMA-related health complications and independence barriers faced by children and adults with SMA.  

Past federal research has led to SMA treatment breakthroughs and a better understanding of SMA and its impact on muscles and the nervous system. New federal investments are needed now to advance promising research ideas that will reverse SMA symptoms and restore muscle and motor function. 

You can help today! 

Join your fellow SMA community members and supporters in asking Congress to support new SMA research through an essential federal medical research program.
