• Photos, videos and parent testimonials

• A tribute to our beloved MYT1L elephant logo (kindly shared by Valérie Salomone, its creator)

• Information about ongoing ASO research at Washington University to identify a gene-based treatment for MYT1L (and a Donate button to help support it)

• A comprehensive list of scientific publications about MYT1L

• A summary and layperson’s description of areas of current research

• A pie chart showing the geographic distribution of our Facebook community

• A Donate button for U.S. tax-deductible contributions supporting capacity building and ASO research
