ERN-RND PARTNERS

Dystonia survey from Dystonia Europe Dystonia Europe, European umbrella organisation for national dystonia groups and ERN-RND partner, has created a survey platform where they host surveys on dystonia. If you are affected by dystonia, please take ten minutes to contribute. Participation in those surveys is so important for the dystonia community as the results help researchers further understand the disease and find better treatments thus providing better care. You can read more about the Dystonia Survey here.
