Join Us in Celebrating the 20th Anniversary of the Gene Discovery

In 2006, scientists identified ACVR1—the gene responsible for fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP). It was a breakthrough many years in the making, and it set the course for everything that has followed in FOP research.

But the story behind that moment—the families, the scientists, the persistence, and the hope that made it possible—has never fully been told.

Until now. Journey to Discovery: A Breakthrough Built on Hope—a brand-new 12-part video series that takes you behind the scenes of one of the most significant moments in FOP history.
