Myelin Repair

[Lulu54]

There is a group of scientists working in a novel way to find a remyelination process  - they are working together even though they are in different institutes, sharing their discoveries and working toward a cure.  I have been reading a bit about this group and they are completely legit.

I just watched their introductory video on youtube  - if you want to learn more about them you can find it at www.youtube.com/watch?v=UzDPWrv8D2g&NR=1

They have numerous other videos there too and links back to their home website.  

I hope you will find this information educational and  encouraging - I sure do!

If you check out the list of doctors/scientists that they are working with I believe you will come to the same conclusions.  The institutions that are affiliated with this project would not be lending their good name to something that wasn't serious.  

Also, they are structured as a non-profit, so if they come up with the cure for MS, the money made off any drugs will go right back in for more research into other diseases.  

Their largest corporate donor is the CEO of Intuit, the software company that makes Quicken, Quickbooks and all sorts of other accounting and financial software packages.  He donated $3 million to the funds.   That is a serious chunk of change.  

The president of the foundation has MS himself -  was dx'd almost 30 years ago. their website is myelinrepair.org

I'm always skeptical, but this one passes the sniff test.  It doesn't stink!

"they are completely legit" ... my over-cautious nature had wondered this recently.

this forum doesn't deserve anything less
