Hope and love aren’t often mentioned in the same breath as scientific research, but they’re exactly what UB’s FOXG1 Research Center (FRC) was founded on.
“Love for every individual living with FOXG1 syndrome and other neurodevelopmental disorders, as well as their caregivers, and hope that we can find a cure for FOXG1 syndrome and related disorders on the basis of scientific discoveries we are making,” Soo-Kyung Lee, director of the FRC and the parent of a child with FOXG1 syndrome, told a crowd gathered to celebrate the center’s official opening Tuesday.
