The MS Stand-Up Campaign
The MS Stand-up campaign is raising money needed to complete ongoing investigations directed by Dr. Tim Vartanian. Scientists at Vartanian Lab at Weill Cornell Medicine in collaboration with scientists at The Rockefeller University are doing innovative investigations that are not being conducted at other labs. There is a whole set of unmet research needs that are critical to the MS research ecosystem. Most are not sexy, but without them, MS research will not go forward. The money raised is going to the Joan and Sanford I. Weill Medical College & Graduate School of Medical Science of Cornell University for use in research at the direction of Dr. Timothy Vartanian. Each year MBPF evaluates where its fundraising efforts are best put to use.
This campaign to raise $3MM has always been a team effort between Regina and Ian, their neurologist Tim Vartanian, and you - all our friends and family.
