Bringing donors and researchers together, ABF has raised over $33 million for brain research to find cures and ways to improve life with brain disease. Founded by the American Academy of Neurology, the "Cure One, Cure Many" initiative supports breakthrough research in brain disease and makes it easy to donate and support the cause. It also engages early-career researchers through its Next Generation Research Grants fund.
