We are deeply saddened by the passing of Australian rules football legend and fierce motor neuron disease (MND) advocate, Neale Daniher. His fearless 13-year battle with MND is one of the many examples of extraordinary courage that drives our mission to develop novel synaptic regenerative treatments to bring new hope to people living with devastating diseases.
At Spinogenix, we’ve seen firsthand how Neale’s relentless advocacy and infectious spirit has helped transform the global landscape of MND research, turning Australia into a vital hub for clinical research. As highlighted in a Channel 9 News segment covering our own clinical trials in Australia, the advocacy of his charity, FightMND, has encouraged international biotech companies to bring their research to the country, accelerating the transition of promising treatments from the lab to human testing.
Neale’s legacy continues to fuel international efforts and our resolve to continue his fight against MND. Spinogenix is working to pave the way for a new era of restorative therapies that honor his legacy and bring new possibilities to the millions of people affected by ALS and other neurodegenerative diseases.
