PLEASE HELP
To apply for many types of funding for NORSE research, scientists usually must show preliminary data supporting their grant application. This preliminary research depends on seed money from individuals.
The NORSE Institute is partnering with the Yale School of Medicine to raise funds for basic NORSE research to be shared with investigators beyond Yale. This biorepository project is unique in its degree of international collaboration. The study collects NORSE and FIRES biological samples from anywhere in the world, performs genetic, cytokine, single-cell RNA and neuropathology studies and makes the results available on a public platform. It also shares remaining biosamples with qualified NORSE investigators. This sharing of rare specimens and analytical results is required for progress in a rare disorder.
Your gift in the memory of, or in honor of, your loved one can be made by clicking on the link below. If you have questions about donations, please contact me. An email confirming your tax-deductible donation will be sent to you by Yale, not by the NORSE Institute. The NORSE Institute does not receive any part of the donation.
Thank you.
