Averell E. Eisner Memorial Fund

We have only one wish at the Institute for Ethnomedicine (dba Brain Chem Labs): to discover new treatments for serious illnesses. This focus has led to the discovery of two promising new drugs for ALS, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and other tangle diseases. We have a third drug in development. Our novel path to discovery has been exciting. Each step of this path, beginning in Guam, has brought us closer to a cure. What Brain Chem Labs (BCL) has accomplished over the last decade is truly remarkable with the advancement of discovery to development. The combination of innovative environmental field research and in-lab analysis has provided much hope for those suffering from these diseases and their families. BCL’s diligent staff and highly capable scientific team cannot be sufficiently acknowledged or thanked for their insights and amazing discoveries into disease processes that have the potential to significantly improve the outcome of patients and impact on the world for good. Their willingness to collaborate with an international consortium of multi-disciplinary scientists toward major achievements and advances, despite a modest budget, is inspiring. It has been an outstanding year of donor support allowing significant progress scientifically. We express gratitude to all our generous donors, advisors, and partners who allow this important work to move forward. Your gift can have a significant impact on preventing, diagnosing, and treating brain diseases. Innovative research leading to novel scientific discoveries, combined with tight financial management, means that your gift will have maximum value.
