Start2Cure Foundation is rated 3 out of 5 in the category philanthropy. Read and write reviews about Start2Cure Foundation. The Start2Cure Foundation is founded by Aat van Herk (top private biotech investor) and is focused on solving especially Multiple Sclerosis and also other nervous system disorders. Although this is a very steep ambition, it does reflect and embodies the mindset of our founder as hard work, perseverance and determination can lead to greatness. With Start2Cure we aim to take a leadership role by enabling medical breakthrough treatments devised via innovative approaches other initiatives and foundations might overlook. To accomplish this we want to support scientists tackling the toughest challenges in MS research on a global scale and invest in young talent with bold new ideas to initiate and stimulate transformative medical research. Our focus is mainly on neuro-restoration which is the biggest unmet need in progressive nervous system disorders like MS, however we are also interested in other approaches to solve unanswered questions relating to these kind of diseases. This can either be by making grants to enable fundamental medical research or via direct investments in early stage clinical trials. Eventually we want to fund a global portfolio of groundbreaking research carried out by individual investigators, multi-investigator teams, and inter-institutional collaborations. #thinkdifferent #impossibleisnothing
