THE MITOFUSIN 2 ETS PROJECT ASSOCIATION was founded on 28 August 2012 by a group of relatives and friends of patients, adults and children, affected by a very rare disease: hereditary peripheral neuropathy due to mutation of the Mitofusin 2 (MFN2) gene.

The non-profit association aims to put Italian and foreign families in contact with patients affected by CMT2A, to build a continuous dialogue with researchers and clinicians (also with the support of the website) by disseminating the scientific information drawn up to by the Department of Neurological Sciences of the University of Milan directed by prof. Nereo Bresolin, to raise funds entirely intended for scientific research on the rare disease CMT2A.
