Clinics and institutes
One of our long-term goals is to create a network of certified NBIA centers. A first step in this direction is the European Reference Network for Rare Neurological Diseases (ERN-RND). Currently, the LMU and TU in Munich, in cooperation, form our most important NBIA center in Germany, with which Hoffnungsbaum e.V. works closely.
Friedrich-Baur-Institute and Neurological Clinic and Polyclinic
The Friedrich-Baur-Institute ist eine Einrichtung der Medizinischen Fakultät der Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München, die sich, in Assoziation mit der Neurologischen Klinik und Poliklinik, der Patientenversorgung und Spitzenforschung auf dem Gebiet der neuromuskulären Erkrankungen widmet. Dort arbeiten wir im klinischen Bereich sehr eng mit Prof. Dr. med. Thomas Klopstock zusammen, der uns auch als wissenschaftlicher Beirat mit Rat und Tat zur Seite steht.
Schwerpunkte:
NBIA patient registry, NBIA research, neurological care
