A equipe do Latin-SEQ em Newcastle garantiu financiamento para os primeiros quatro anos do projeto. Isso permitir\u00e1 a forma\u00e7\u00e3o do cons\u00f3rcio, o sequenciamento e an\u00e1lise dos primeiros 1.000 pacientes com doen\u00e7as neuromusculares recrutados na LATAM. Os custos com o envio das amostras biol\u00f3gicas para Newcastle upon Tyne, Reino Unido, bem como os materiais necess\u00e1rios para a coleta e embalagem das amostras, ser\u00e3o cobertos pela coordena\u00e7\u00e3o do projeto. No entanto, outros custos relacionados ao recrutamento de pacientes e gerenciamento das amostras ser\u00e3o de responsabilidade de cada institui\u00e7\u00e3o participante?.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
