Cystinosis Families
Join the CRF Community Forum
We encourage you to join the Community Forum to connect with other families while fostering new friendships and connections with the cystinosis community worldwide. The forums are designed with specific topics for asking questions and sharing solutions about living with cystinosis.
Partners
Our growing success is due to the outreaching of love and support from cystinosis families around the country, supporting each other in our mutual effort to cure cystinosis. We have formed partnerships with the Flerchinger family of Clarkston, Washington, the Grier family of Charlotte, North Carolina, the Partington family of Sacramento, California and the Sturgis family of Sandpoint, Idaho.

Clinical Trials
Over the past few years there have been new research developments and significant advancements in the treatment of cystinosis. Dr. Ranjan Dohil’s research study funded by CRF at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) has resulted in the development of a slow-release form of cysteamine.
