107-07: The neurobiology of lysosomal storage disorders
The lysosomal storage disorders are a group of more than 40 incurable and devastating brain diseases that mostly affect children and young adults. These children will all become blind, suffer epileptic fits that get increasingly more severe, lose the ability to walk and become severely impaired mentally. Because there are no effective treatments available, or even means to slow down the disease, these children will all die prematurely.
