The founder and CEO of the Cure Lowe’s Foundation has more than an academic interest in finding a cure for Lowe’s Syndrome. Two years ago, his own son was diagnosed with the Lowe’s Syndrome at birth and faces certain kidney failure in the future unless the disease’s progress can be halted. 

He is optimistic, both for his son and for others in need of successful treatments for rare kidney disorders.  The solution his foundation is working on is a patient-led research project bringing industry and researchers together to develop gene therapy for Lowes Syndrome and Dents disease type 2.   Pre-clinical models have shown that the therapy delivers to the right cells.   The Cure Lowe’s Foundation is looking for collaborators, researchers and pioneers to further this promising research.
