    Stockdale Paradox: Not getting out at Xmas, but we will win. #SynGAPCensus = 1,707. #S10e193

    Friday, January 2, 2026 - Week 1   #SynGAPCensus = 1,707 https://curesyngap1.org/blog/syngap1-census-2025-update-32-q4-2025-1707/   From the Cantor Report on CAMP4  The Stockdale Paradox. The best way to succinctly describe CAMP4 and the parties driving progress in this field (Cure SYNGAP1, families, researchers) is, for anyone familiar with Jim Collins' book "Good to Great," they have fully embraced the "Stockdale Paradox": To succeed in difficult circumstances you must 1) confront the brutal facts (severity of the disorder, devastating impact on patients and families, lack of treatment) while 2) maintaining unwavering faith that you can and will prevail in the end. It gives us conviction that there WILL be a therapy approved for SYNGAP sooner than later and CAMP is most likely to deliver it.   Read more on Jim Collins site: https://www.jimcollins.com/concepts/Stockdale-Concept.html   This is exactly what SYNGAP1 Argentina achieved at our conference.  Acting with certainty that they can and will prevail.   Check out their exceptional flyer: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1O_DldABKTkB9ZLIiUBqXGBMrtlzie-7i/view?usp=share_link    PUBMED is at 59 for the year, that is +4 over our best year, last year.  177 since 2022, almost half of our SYNGAP1 Knowledge (366) has been created in the past 4 years! https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?term=syngap1&filter=years.1998-2026&timeline=expanded&sort=date    #20Posters Speaking of publications, I talked about 16 posters at AES this year and shared on LI, but I was wrong in the responses I realized we are up to 20! https://www.linkedin.com/posts/graglia_syngap1-curesyngap1-activity-7408291479187755008-rMru    Mutation Tattoo Story https://www.linkedin.com/posts/shriya-bhat-0b845b203_at-a-patient-advocacy-meeting-in-nashville-activity-7409304451821277184-TO0t    SOCIAL MATTERS 4,529 LinkedIn.  https://www.linkedin.com/company/curesyngap1/  1,500 YouTube.  https://www.youtube.com/@CureSYNGAP1    11.2k Twitter https://twitter.com/cureSYNGAP1  45k Insta https://www.instagram.com/curesyngap1/    $CAMP stock is at $6.00 on 2 Jan. ‘26 https://www.google.com/finance/beta/quote/CAMP:NASDAQ   Like and subscribe to this podcast wherever you listen.  https://curesyngap1.org/podcasts/syngap10/ Episode 193 of #Syngap10 #CureSYNGAP1 #Podcast
