EDUCATE. DIAGNOSE. REFER
Our driving force is to promote early diagnosis, by educating clinicians, to ensure we put all children, as early as possible, on a pathway of care that serves them.
THE TIN SOLDIERS NETWORK
We are finding new FOP patients every year, thanks to our incredible network of clinicians and partners.
Yes we ARE finding needles in haystacks, all over the world.
At the launch of the Tin Soldiers program in 2020, there were 16 known and connected cases in Africa; 15 of which were in South Africa. As of April 2022, there are 37 known cases in Africa, with the additional 22 cases having been identified or diagnosed either directly through the Tin Soldiers program or by clinicians within
our growing network of FOP-educated professionals.
In India, 3 new cases have been identified through the Tin Soldiers program with another
child diagnosed in Australia.
