This study aims to uncover the genetic roots of aortic aneurysms and valve disease by analyzing tissue and blood samples from 3,000 participants. Researchers will look for new disease-causing genes and factors that affect disease severity. The goal is to build a biorepository to …

This observational study looks at muscle strength, structure, and nerve function in people with Marfan syndrome or Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. Participants undergo a non-invasive muscle ultrasound and perform voluntary contractions while their muscle activity is recorded. The goal is…

This study observes 80 children with Marfan syndrome to understand how the condition impacts their quality of life, self-image, and ability to manage their health. Participants fill out questionnaires about their well-being and medication habits. The goal is to identify who might…
