Story

Hi! Emily and Jason here. We're running the 2024 London Marathon for Brain Research UK!

Emily and Jason are medical students at The Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio, U.S.! We both majored in neuroscience at university and are passionate about supporting our chronic care community. Jason plans on going into neurology, and Emily is currently involved in neuro-plastics research!

Brain Research UK is the UK’s leading national funder dedicated to research into neurological conditions. They fund vital research to increase understanding, improve diagnosis and treatment, and work towards the prevention of neurological conditions, to help people who suffer with them live better, longer. Their funding is currently focused on three priority research areas: Brain tumors, Brain and spinal cord injury, and Headache and facial pain. These are areas where there is a large unmet patient need that is not reflected in current funding levels. By concentrating efforts on these three areas, they can have a more significant impact.

Help us to make a difference - your support means that we can continue to fund life-changing research so that people living with neurological conditions can live better longer.
