Progeria is a fatal, "rapid aging" disease that afflicts children, who die of heart disease at an average age of 14.5 years - the same heart disease affecting millions of normal aging adults. The Progeria Research Foundation (PRF) is the only non-profit solely dedicated to finding treatments and the cure for Progeria, and is hailed as a prime example of a successful translational research organization.
