International Centre for Genomic Medicine in Neuromuscular Diseases news

Work alongside clinical experts, bioinformaticians, and basic scientific researchers at a world-leading institution to make a tangible difference to the NMD rare disease community.

American Association of Neuromuscular & Electrodiagnostic Medicine (AANEM) is proud to present the the 2025 Honorary Member Award Professor Mary Reilly (UCL Queen Square Institute of Neurology).

Congratulations to Professor Mary Reilly, a globally renowned and award-winning clinical neurologist, who has been awarded an honorary MBE for her services to medicine.

Published in Lancet Neurology, UCL researchers have delivered a ground- breaking investigator-led head-to-head rare disease trial that will impact clinical practice globally.

Congratulations to Professor Mary Reilly (Neuromuscular Diseases, UCL Queen Square Institute of Neurology) who was been awarded the prestigious Alan J. Gebhart Prize for Excellence in Peripheral Nerve

This week, Saverio Tedesco, Professor of Neuromuscular Biology & Regenerative Medicine, was elected Fellow of the Royal College of Paediatrics & Child Health, and a consortium he leads, exploring new genetic therapies for rare neuromuscular diseases, has significantly expanded.

A new research centre co-led by UCL scientists in the Faculty of Brain Sciences will help thousands of people living with mitochondrial diseases to get access to improved diagnostics and treatments.

The Academy has today announced that Professor Michael Hanna FMedSci, Professor of Clinical Neurology and Director of both the UCL Queen Square Institute of Neurology and UCL MRC International Centre
