Of Note

Posted on 8:46 PM by Unknown
There is so much goodness here.  Enough to note.  Too much to note.
Just some of it:
Two local fundraising events, in October and November, have been scheduled to benefit BDSRA.  Learn more under the "Current Fundraisers" tab.

Researchers at Cornell University have established a gateway through the blood-brain barrier.  (Journal of Neuroscience, Sept. 14, 2011.)  Therapies to treat Alzheimer's disease, multiple sclerosis and cancers of the central nervous system - and even lysosomal storage disorders like Batten Disease - might eventually be delivered effectively this way.

Homewatch CareGivers of Central Ohio selected Grandpa Tim as the local "Family Care Giver of the Year."  Read more about the honor here, or in BDSRA's newsletter, The Illuminator.
