What is The Telomere Project?

The Telomere Project (TTP) is dedicated to funding lifesaving efforts for those affected by telomere syndromes (TS), in particular, those which result in shortened telomeres or low telomere promotion.

Our Mission

Our work centers on two key efforts:

Seeking pathways to treatments and a cure for telomere syndromes and associated diseases.

Building Thrive Tribe - a telomere syndrome & IPF community who are seeking joy and cherishing the time we have together.

Our Story

The Telomere Project was founded by three brothers (Erik, Matt, and Michael) to address telomere syndromes, which have claimed the lives of several of their family members.

Get Involved!

Join us in advancing critical research and building a strong community of TS survivors.

Together, we can change the course of telomere syndromes for thousands of individuals and their families.
