We Think Differently About ALS, Alzheimer’s & Parkinson’s Disease.

Dr. Paul Alan Cox in the Jackson Hole laboratory.

One of the advantages of establishing a cutting-edge laboratory in the shadow of the Tetons is the freedom it gives our scientists to think differently about serious brain diseases.

Our focus is not on treating symptoms, but on discovering and disrupting the ultimate causes of brain diseases, particularly protein misfolding.

Our discovery of new diagnostic tests for ALS and Alzheimer’s, which promise to accelerate both diagnosis and treatment, resulted from our innovative approach.

Our testing of a naturally occurring amino acid, L-serine, to stop protein misfolds shows it to be safer, more effective, and cost-efficient than clearing β-amyloid plaques.

As a not-for-profit organization, we depend on your gifts to continue this important research. At a time of economic uncertainty, it is even more crucial that we seek new approaches to treat these most serious of diseases.

We are at a turning point, ready to make our discoveries available to patients worldwide. A gift from you right now will have a major impact.
