SCN8A is a gene that encodes a voltage-gated sodium channel that plays an important role in regulating excitability in the brain.
SCN8A.net offers a new vision for helping those living with, treating and/or researching SCN8A, facilitating communication among families, physicians and scientists. We engage in research aimed at improving the quality of life for those with SCN8A.
Join our community of SCN8A families, researchers and clinicians by signing up to become a Family Partner. We will keep you informed of new developments and opportunities to participate in SCN8A research.
