Is there any research is being done on neurofibromatosis (nf)?

A lot: I would visit: http://www.Ninds.Nih.Gov/disorders/neurofibromatosis/neurofibromatosis.Htm do you have type 1 or 2.

Yes: Research teams located the exact position of the NF1 gene on chromosome 17.Product of NF1 gene is a large and complex protein called neurofibromin,which is primarily active in nervous cells as a regulator of cell division.Intensive efforts have let to the identification of the NF2 gene on chromosome 22. NF2 gene product is a tumor-suppressor protein called merlin.Ongoing research to discover genes
