Accelerated Cure Project For Multiple Sclerosis

Description

• The Accelerated Cure Project for Multiple Sclerosis (ACP) is a national non-profit organization whose mission is to accelerate research efforts, to improve diagnosis, to optimize treatment and to cure multiple sclerosis (MS).Thanks to the participation of over 3200 people at 10 MS clinics around the US, materials and data from the Repository have made possible almost 80 clinical research studies undertaken by groups in academia and industry, all over the world. New knowledge about MS and related disorders has definitely been gained - and published in leading scientific journals - and a number of diagnostic tests are being developed based on research using Repository materials. AND, to date, over 25 separate datasets, containing about 300 million datapoints, have been deposited in the Repository database. The ACP Repository database currently contains more information about many people with MS than has ever been collected in one place. The founders vision has become a reality, the ACP Repository is crowdsourcing critical deep knowledge about people with MS.Ultimately, that value will be new diagnostics, new treatments and cures for MS.A scientist, Thomas Aune from Vanderbilt University, was quoted in a Scientific American blog (see Scientific American Blog). In the article, Thomas says, Working with them (ACP) allowed us to obtain critical samples and confirm our results for only $20,000. If I had to obtain these samples from scratch, it would have cost $1 million and added 5 years to the project.If Thomass estimate of the value of ACPs contribution to his research efforts is also true for all the research studies that have been enabled by the Repository, then, to date, ACP support has likely generated almost $80 million of research value and saved almost 400 years of research time!!!Website: www.acceleratedcure.orgFacebook: www.facebook.com/AcceleratedCureProjectTwitter: @AcceleratedCureGoogle+: Accelerated Cure Project
