Statement of Purpose

Our purpose in this project is to aid in the search of a cure for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy by providing a simple algorithm that will find the mutations in the dystrophin DNA sequence.

The main reason we chose to focus on Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy was James Moore, Kathryn Moore's younger brother. He is a candidate for gene therapy as soon as it is released to the doctors. This algorithm will speed up the process of releasing the cure to the doctors.
