Usher 1F Collaborative is a U.S. nonprofit foundation whose mission is to fund medical research to save or restore the vision of those with Usher Syndrome type 1F. When we began in 2013, there was no research specific to Usher 1F. Since then, patients and families working together with scientists have brought about the development of gene, drug, and stem cell therapies at eight research labs around the world. If you or a family member has Usher 1F, please join us in our work to find a cure. Visit our website at https://www.usher1f.org and email us at info@usher1f.org
