A Monumental $128 Million Step Forward for HHT Research
Today is a monumental day for HHT. The new biotechnology company, Diagonal Therapeutics, officially launched and we wanted to share more about why this is news you simply can’t miss!

For months, Cure HHT has been collaborating with Diagonal’s management team to help make this day a reality.
