National Human Genome Research Institute: Spinal Muscular Atrophy

Piper was just a week old when her parents learned she had spinal muscular atrophy. Without treatment, her muscles would weaken. Breathing and eating would become difficult. At three weeks old, Piper became the first child in Wisconsin treated with a new gene therapy, called Zolgensma, for spinal muscular atrophy.
