🧪 🧬 🧠 - We are excited to announce that we have received $1.8 million from the Michael J. Fox Foundation to address a critical gap in Parkinson’s research – the limited availability of standardized, scalable human cell model systems for understanding Parkinson’s.
Thirty-nine curious, high-achieving students arrived on JAX’s campuses in Bar Harbor, Maine, Farmington, Conn., and New York, N.Y. to pursue 10 weeks of hands-on research this summer.
JAX scientists are exploring similar genes, proteins and pathways in the eye in the early stages of glaucoma and in Alzheimer’s disease + creating a next-generation brain atlas to map to solve neuro's biggest challenges. 🧬 🧪
