In the field of neuromuscular diseases, the last decade witnessed an encouraging progress in the quest for molecules and treatments that help patient to increase their quality of life and raise hopes for a definitive cure.

With the availability of appropriate animal models and the increasing interest in research for rare diseases it is important to keep the quality of publications high, to implement the reproducibility and comparability of results across labs and to increase translatability to human clinical trials.

The following protocols were elaborated by groups of independent reseachers (listed in each proocol) and can be now downloaded for free from these pages. This effort was made possible by TREAT-NMD, Cure CMD, AFM, FED and by the unvaluable collaboration of all researchers involved.
