Our Mission
Currently in the US, one in three adults have experienced back pain in the past three months with disc degeneration being the leading cause. In addition, two-thirds of adults under 50 and nine out of ten adults over 50 experience disc degeneration with no disease-modifying treatments available.
Our mission is to explore the complexities of spinal diseases, focusing on the progression and treatment of intervertebral disc disease. We aim to identify reliable biomarkers and develop effective therapies that will enhance patient outcomes.
We invite individuals with curiosity, passion, kindness, and vision to join our collaborative efforts in this vital research.
