Accelerate Breakthroughs in Brain & Vision Regeneration
Neurodegenerative diseases and vision loss affect millions worldwide. Current treatments may slow decline — but they cannot restore lost brain or retinal tissue.
At the Neural Stem Cell Institute (NSCI), we develop next-generation stem-cell therapies that aim to repair, replace, and restore the cells damaged by Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, macular degeneration, and spinal cord injury.
Your gift fuels research that gives real hope for cures.
Why Your Support Matters
Every breakthrough begins with a donor. Philanthropic support powers the early-stage science that leads to tomorrow’s therapies.
- 7+ million Americans live with Alzheimer’s
- 20 million face vision loss from macular degeneration and retinal disease
- Parkinson’s cases have doubled in the past 25 years
- Spinal cord injury still has no cure — yet
NSCI scientists are advancing discoveries that were impossible a decade ago and continued donor support makes that progress possible.
How Your Gift Accelerates Breakthroughs
Your donation helps support:
- Retinal regeneration research to restore vision
- Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s stem-cell models to uncover new therapies
- Spinal cord repair programs focused on functional recovery
- Drug discovery and preclinical testing
- Training the next generation of neuroscientists
More than 95% of every dollar directly fuels research.
