Introduction

  • The goal of this section is to provide the background on the history of how the disease/condition was discovered, and the developments in the study of the disease over time.
  • Remember to put {{CMG}} at the top of the page, and the template you created for the navigation bars at the right side of the box.
  • Below is a template and a description of some of the subheadings you can use on this page.
  • Remember this is not the page for patient history, or the natural history of the disease.
