Disease of the brain are now poised to be a major public health threat. As death rates for heart disease and cancer go down, disability and death rates from neurological diseases are on the rise. Even though we are living longer, our brains simply weren't designed to last that long.
This is the Brain Campaign.
Think about how your life has been affected by a brain disease. Now think about the work that is currently beind done at the Krembil Neuroscience Centre at Toronto Western Hospital. Think about the world's best scientists, clinicians, neurologists and neurosurgeons who are doing leading edge translational research and creating breakthrough treatments for patients in all these areas.
We've already raised $60M to bring them all together in a state of the art research tower. The Brain Campaign is the next step. We've already made amazing progress in bringing together the best in a world-class facility. Now we're ready to give them what they need.
Here's where you come in. Our goal is to reach $200M to provide them with the tools, labs and support to work in a collaborative environment. Their goal is to cure the brain. Ours is to help.
