About Us

AICa3 is the Italian Calpaine 3 Association, for the fight against Calpain 3 Deficiency Muscular Dystrophy.

Since this is a very rare disease (1 case every 200,000) and therefore almost unknown, we want to arouse and maintain public interest in the problems of people affected by this disease by promoting and supporting scientific research, through the collection of funds to be allocated to the same, and give a helping hand to all those people who are facing this problem through the exchange of information and experiences.

We also want to contribute to the improvement of the wealth of information that exists in Italy about the needs and supports that are indispensable for patients with cingulate dystrophy and their families, in particular by informing them about the possibilities of care, therapies and places of assistance.
