Here you will find summaries of the progress in research to treat Usher syndrome. Research is organized by treatment approaches and research progress for all subtypes of Usher syndrome (gene-specific), as well as gene-independent approaches that have the potential to benefit anyone with USH (i.e. stem cell therapy, neuroprotection, optogenetics, etc.)
