Female carriers of choroideremia (CHM) can have symptoms and there are numerous research studies to support that fact. Check out this research study published in January of this year: https://t.co/MSb7oqGOwp @curechm #CarrierConnections #NotJustCarriers

Had a great chat with Taylor from @remember_girls about the latest research on female carriers of X-linked retinal diseases. Honoured to speak on International Women’s Day about the challenges women face with these conditions. #IWD2025 #WomenInScience

Thank you to Dr. Sena Gocuk for joining us for an episode on collectively coeXisting to discuss female carriers of X-linked retinal diseases including choroideremia and X-linked retinitis pigmentosa. Listen to her full interview here: https://t.co/Ju451LBNkt

This month we are partnering with @curechm to highlight choroideremia (CHM). CHM is a form of X-linked retinal degeneration.

[Remember The Girls @remember_girls]

This month as part of our Carrier Connections series, we are partnering with @curechm to bring you facts and interviews about choroideremia and how carriers may be impacted. Stay tuned! #Choroideremia #XLinked #NotJustCarriers

[Remember The Girls @remember_girls]

Choroideremia and X-linked retinitis pigmentosa are together considered "X-linked retinal disease." #FactFriday

🌍✨ Meet Victoria, Andrew, Felix, Atticus, and Talia!
Two of their children live with #Choroiderrmia

But this incredible family isn’t standing still. They’re running! Over the next six months, they’ll take on 10km races in 10 countries to raise funds for research and education, working toward a future without choroideremia.

Their journey kicked off in Fiji on December 8th, 2024—and they need your support! Together, we can help them go the distance and bring hope to families affected by this disease.

Thank you @EyeResearchAus for featuring our research emphasising the support needed by female carriers of X-linked retinal diseases. @DrLaurenAyton @JKJolly4

[Centre for Eye Research Australia @EyeResearchAus]

A new survey has found women at risk of passing on genetic eye diseases to their children experience lack of counselling & support.

The study by @sgocuk is the 1st global survey of female carriers of X-linked inherited retinal diseases: https://t.co/D7cWYJmiJL

Her research will expand the knowledge on female carriers, determine ratio & direction of lyonization @JKJolly4 @remember_girls https://t.co/TDD3b2Oxxh

[Dr Jasleen K Jolly 💙 @JKJolly4]

Really pleased to be hosting Sena in the UK at the moment thanks to @curechm support to better understand how choroideremia works over time in female carriers. To take part in this research if you are in the UK please get in touch. #ProudSupervisor
