Alzheimer's Drug Discovery Foundation Second Annual Connoisseur's Dinner Fund a Scientist |
| The Fund a Scientist program is a unique opportunity for Connoisseur’s Dinner guests to fund one of the most promising projects in Alzheimer’s drug discovery research. Dr. Juan Sanchez-Ramos, a Professor of Neurology of the University of South Florida, is investigating the use of a drug called G-CSF for Alzheimer’s disease. His research in animals has shown that G-CSF increases the production and function of natural brain stem cellsandreduces the amount of toxic beta-amyloid. Since G-CSF is already FDA approved for other diseases, positive results could be rapidly confirmed in clinical trials, and immediately employed in medical practice. Join us to award a $200,000, distributed over two years, to Dr. Sanchez-Ramos to complete his work towards a novel and effective treatment for Alzheimer’s disease. We offer you the opportunity to contribute at the $25,000, $10,000, $5,000 or $2,500 levels and accelerate research towards a cure for this dreaded disease. |
