CACNA1A is a calcium channel gene in the brain. Mutations on this gene cause neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative issues, including epilepsy, autism, global developmental delays and intellectual disability. Our patients struggle with learning, language, eye movement, balance and communication disorders. Our mission is to find specific treatment options and a cure for CACNA1A patients by building a collaborative network of patients, families, clinicians and scientists that will work together to raise awareness and accelerate the understanding, diagnosis and treatment of CACNA1A-linked diseases.
