"For small to medium to national organizations, for events and fundraisers of any size, in any format – live, virtual or hybrid – the platform is built for scale."

The grant, from the National Institutes of Health, is aimed at smaller research institutions. MSUB announced last week that Lynn George, an assistant professor of molecular biology, secured a grant for $395,533.

George has been doing DNA-level research into familial dysautonomia for about seven years. The disease is rare, but those who carry it are often diagnosed early in life.

It’s a progressive disease that causes a host of issues with involuntary nervous system functions.
