About

Coalition to Cure Calpain 3 (C3) was founded in 2010 for the specific purpose of funding research efforts focused on understanding the biology of and finding a cure for calpainopathy (also known as limb girdle muscular dystrophy type 2A/LGMD2A). We at C3 are motivated by our desire to encourage collaboration among scientists, those who have calpainopathy, their families, friends and the community-at-large to bring an end to this under-researched, underfunded "orphan" disease.
