In a recent podcast conversation, Dr. Huda Zoghbi reflected on the remarkable journey of the Duncan Neurological Research Institute as it celebrates its 15th anniversary.
The Duncan NRI was built on a bold vision: bring together experts from different disciplines to tackle some of the most complex neurological diseases affecting children and families. That culture of collaboration has fueled extraordinary progress over the past 15 years.
Today, the institute has identified more than 100 disease-causing genes, expanded its focus to include adult-onset neurodegenerative diseases and is advancing potential treatments for autism, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease and other neurological conditions.
During the conversation, Dr. Zoghbi discussed how institutional partnership, intellectual generosity, scientific risk-taking, philanthropic support and emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence are helping researchers continue solving the unsolvable and bringing hope to patients and families around the world.
