Olivia, diagnosed in February 2023, faces developmental challenges. The donation aims to fund the creation of induced Pluripotent Stem Cells, crucial for developing therapies. Olivia's family hopes this research will unlock treatments for missense variants, benefiting Olivia and others with similar conditions.
