Current research priorities
· Improve our understanding of the biology and genetics of all forms of EB, as better
understanding can lead to new approaches to diagnose and treat EB· Work towards the development of therapies (including possible gene-therapies, cell-
therapies, drug therapies or protein therapies)· Understand the nature of wound healing and the development of skin cancer in EB, and seek
to develop better treatments and prevention strategies· Support clinical care research to improve the management of EB through symptom relief
