Brief Summary
The project aims to improve the understanding of a significant group of rare diseases both from a genetic/diagnostic and clinical/experimental point of view and aims to develop one or more diagnostic protocols. The study will be conducted through the application of complementary experimental strategies, ranging from the clinical, genetic and molecular characterization of the pathology to the search for rare variants and the development of cellular disease models.
