Rett syndrome is a rare but serious neurological disorder that affects about 1 in 9,000 girls. Even more rarely, boys may be affected.
We aim to share our research findings with families so that they may better understand Rett syndrome and the future for their family.
These resources include the best available evidence about the course of Rett syndrome and its management as well as practical information about family associations, specialist clinical centres and links to relevant websites.

Now 17 years of age, she has just graduated from high school and been named Blackall's Young Citizen of the Year - an area in Western Queensland, Australia.
