The Centre builds on the already excellent research, training and patient care in Oxford to drive the development of novel experimental therapies more rapidly and increase national clinical trial capacity in neuromuscular diseases. The Centre is housed by the University of Oxfords Department of Paediatrics and spans across multiple departments including the Department of Paediatrics, the Nuffield Department of Clinical Neurosciences, the Department of Physiology, Anatomy and Genetics, the Nuffield Department of Women's & Reproductive Health, the Department of Chemistry and the Oxford University Hospitals Neurology Services.
