À propos de cet audio
Michael J. Fox's Michael J. Fox Foundation made waves this week with two powerhouse announcements underscoring his enduring fight against Parkinson's. On December 9, the MJFF kicked off its Targets to Therapies Initiative, pouring funding into validating 21 priority targets like NOD2, OGA, and endolysosomal players TRPML1, TMEM175, and ATP13A2 to turbocharge new treatments, as detailed in their official press release via BioSpace. Days later on December 12, they dropped a gripping short film, Making a Difference in 25 Years, narrated by CEO Debi Brooks and directed by Fox's producing partner Nelle Fortenberry, chronicling how the foundation exploded from three staffers to over 300, funded 500-plus therapies now in the pipeline, and pledged another 2.5 billion dollars for breakthroughs—watch it on their YouTube channel for the full emotional punch. That same day, MJFF guest blogger Bryan Roberts, a young Parkinson's advocate, shared his can't-stop-won't-stop travel tips for the holiday rush, drawing from 15 years living with the disease via their site. A fresh podcast episode on December 9 dove into AI's role in Parkinson's research, straight from the MJFF feed. No public appearances or social media posts from Fox himself surfaced in the last few days, though Back to the Future The Musical—tied to his iconic Marty McFly—hits New Orleans December 9 to 14. Gossip mills churned baseless death rumors from RadarOnline, but they're unverified tabloid fodder with zero confirmation. Amid all this, Fox's shadow looms large, his foundation's momentum a biographical milestone hinting at legacy-defining cures on the horizon. Word count: 378.
