Who We Are
Driving Innovation Toward
a Cure for FSHD
SOLVE FSHD is a venture philanthropic organization founded on the generous commitment of $100M USD from the Wilson family. We are part of a larger global FSHD community that has brought us to a place and time where cures for FSHD are possible. As a mission-driven organization, our unique approach is to be a catalyst, making strategic investments through partners in leading academic, biotech and biopharmaceutical organizations.
We will work with our partners and advisors in the life sciences community to develop a pipeline of new therapies and a cure by December 31, 2027. Once we have a SOLVE for FSHD we will continue to support the ongoing needs of this global community.
