This webinar from the Cerebral Palsy Research Network [United States], brings together clinicians, researchers, and family advocates to discuss the role of genetic testing in CP, recent scientific findings, and real-world experiences of families seeking a diagnosis. It highlights how identifying a genetic cause can influence clinical decision-making, guide treatment options, and improve access to emerging therapies and support services.

Approximately 25–30% of individuals with cerebral palsy may have an underlying genetic cause, which is increasingly shaping how the condition is understood and managed.
