Adam Foye, a New-Jersey sixth grader, has lived much of his life with weak muscles and uncertainty. Although his symptoms match most closely with the rare muscular disorder, Centronuclear Myopathy (CNM), his genes tell a different story. The 11-year-old’s tests show no issues with the genes that indicate CNM. Adam’s mother, Sarah, said in a recent TIME story, “it has taken a very long time to get no answers.” Helping Others, Helping People, Muscle Disorders, Muscular Dystrophies, Clinical Trials, Graders, The Cure, Treatment, Take That

As vice president of public affairs at the Association of Clinical Research Organizations (ACRO), John Lewis understands the importance of supporting medical research. “Ultimately we’ll all be patients,” says John. However, he’s also quick to note that, “In the United States, we have less than 4 percent of the population who participate in clinical trials. Yet, about half of clinical trials are done in the United States. So the math doesn’t work." Clinical Research, Medical Research, Acro, Vice President, Organizations, John Lewis, Presidents, Public

These strategic partnerships are essential if we really want to improve the speed and efficiency in which we move innovations into the hands of people that need them.
