- The TBRS Community offers a monthly Friends and Family Support Group via Zoom. Families from all around the world can participate. We create a safe place to share thoughts, feelings, concerns, and emotions without judgment. The meeting seems to take a different shape every time we gather—sometimes we focus on sharing resources or experiences, but we always seek to make everyone feel comfortable and supported.
- Any parents or caregivers of someone diagnosed with TBRS are welcome.
- This event will take place Wednesday, August 20, 2025 at 4:00 PM Eastern Time via Zoom

- REMINDER: TBRS Registry → call for uploads
- TBRS research and care have come so far — thanks to YOU and the data shared in the TBRS and DNMT3A Patient Registry.
- Now we need your help again with a time-sensitive, specific call to upload reports and medical records to support TBRS and DNMT3A Research Projects.
- If you only have time for a few uploads, please prioritize:
- Neuropsychological evaluation and/or Psychological evaluation reports
- Educational reports (OT, PT, speech, cognitive testing)
- (It’s okay if they are not in English. Upload reports from throughout the years. The more the better!)
- Next level of priority:
- Imaging reports (brain, heart, abdominal — MRI, MRA, ultrasound, echocardiogram, CT, etc)
- EEG, Echo, and EKG reports
- Specialist reports
- Growth charts
- Upload or update your records securely here: https://tbrsregistry.iamrare.org/
- These can be uploaded in the survey titled Genetic Tests, Imaging, and Medical Testing
- We’re happy to meet with you on Zoom if you need help uploading. Just let us know.
- Thank you for continuing to move TBRS research forward.
Thanks! Please reach out to me with any questions at [email protected]. Happy weekend!
Kit Church, CARE Manager
