About The Duchenne Registry
The Duchenne Registry (formerly DuchenneConnect) began in 2007, when a group of thought leaders in the Duchenne muscular dystrophy community began discussing the need for a new kind of resource that would connect and serve the needs of the entire community. What they envisioned was a central hub that would bring together those living with Duchenne or Becker muscular dystrophy, along with their families and caregivers, to connect them with medical research, clinical care, clinical trials, and each other. At the same time, it would also be a resource for researchers and industries with an interest in Duchenne, allowing access to de-identified data provided by patients and their families — information that could prove vital to advances in care and treatment. Today, the result of this endeavor is The Duchenne Registry, the largest, most comprehensive registry for Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy. When you join The Duchenne Registry, you are strengthening the power of a patient-reported network that will be used to improve care for people living with Duchenne or Becker and increase our understanding of all dystrophinopathies. You become a citizen scientist by contributing to real scientific research by simply sharing your data.
