The Spring 2025 CMTA Report focuses on the power of small tools with a big impact in improving daily life for people with CMT. This issue explores how assistive technology, innovative research, and a strong community are driving progress toward greater independence. From the CMTA Gadget Store’s curated selection of practical tools to advancements in genetic therapies and clinical trials through CMTA’s Strategy To Accelerate Research (CMTA-STAR), every step forward brings us closer to a world without CMT.

Community is the driving force behind every breakthrough. Shooting Star, our youth-led news program hosted on CMTA’s YouTube channel reflects the next generation’s commitment to making CMT science more accessible. The legacy of Bob Buuck highlights the lasting impact of dedicated community champions in research, whose contributions continue to shape the future. Through Patients as Partners in Research, CMTA branches, and Walk 4 CMT, individuals across the world are joining together to accelerate progress. Every voice, every effort, and every connection strengthens the movement toward a better future for all those living with CMT.
