Research projects that K.I.D.S. IQ Project funds are focused on the advancement of translational science (drug development). While K.I.D.S. IQ Project may invest in basic research (when appropriate), outcome measures will always be designed with a therapeutic drug treatment path in mind. The immediate goal is to enter human clinical trials for a potential drug in as short a time period as possible. The initial priority is Kleefstra syndrome, but K.I.D.S. IQ Project will also evaluate other ID disorder projects believed to benefit a broad group of ID disorders. See our mission here.
