We rise by lifting others.

identifies and funds cutting-edge research, challenging scientists worldwide to collaborate and innovate in pursuit of a cure for epilepsy. In addition to pursuing a cure for childhood epilepsy, Cure awards grants for novel research projects to address epilepsy related to post-traumatic injury, eliminate treatment side effects, and reverse deficits caused by frequent seizures. CURE has led a dramatic shift in the epilepsy research community from simply treating and managing seizures to enhancing understanding of underlying mechanisms and causes so that cures and preventative strategies can be found.

(JDRF) is the leading global organization funding type 1 diabetes (T1D) research. Our mission is to improve lives today and tomorrow by accelerating life-changing breakthroughs to cure, prevent and treat T1D and its complications.

We want a cure, and we won’t stop until we find one. Along the way, we will continue to drive scientific progress that delivers new treatments and therapies that make day-to-day life with T1D easier, safer and healthier.

is produced through National Public Radio’s Science Friday Initiative and is a trusted source for news and entertaining stories about science. For 25 years we’ve introduced top scientists to public radio listeners, and reminded them how much fun it is to learn something new. But we’re more than just a radio show. We produce award-winning podcasts, digital videos, original web articles, and eductional resoures for teachers and informal educators. We like to say we’re brain fun, for curious people. All of our work is independently produced by the Science Friday Initiative, a non-profit organization dedicated to increasing the public’s access to science and scientific information. WYNC studios distributes our radio show, which you can catch on public radio stations across the U.S.

deploys mobile generators that produces fresh drinking water via an often overlooked source: air.  The Wedew is a versatile, self-contained, sustainable energy-water generator. It converts biomass into essential human resources while sequestering would-be greenhouse gases into the ground. This ground-breaking technology supports climate resilience, communities without infrastructure and the emergency response deployment of water for natural disasters.
