🩸2026 CMT Biobank Dates + Cities Are Here!

The CMT Biobank continues to drive critical research forward, and we’re excited to announce our 2026 collection dates and cities.

Are we coming to a city near you?

HNF is seeking individuals with a CMT diagnosis to participate in the CMT Biobank. By donating a small blood sample and allowing your de-identified GRIN data to be shared, you’ll help researchers:

Develop cell models for all CMT subtypes

Advance therapeutic targets

Identify important CMT biomarkers

Participation is simple, and there is no cost to participate.

Our partner, COMBINEDBrain, will be collecting samples at the following locations. You may visit ANY of these cities.
