Thanks for visiting my web site!

We support a wonderful organization known 
as the Down Syndrome Research and Treatment Foundation (DSRTF). 

Their research objective and values statements provide a clear picture of what they are all about:

DSRTF's research objective is to fund science that enhances the lives of people with Down syndrome through the improvement of cognition.  Cognition involves the processing of information, perceprion, attention, judgment, and understanding the environment around us.

DSRTF believes that a narrow focus is critical to the success of our mission.  As a result, the only research that DSRTF supports is that which focuses on understanding and improving cognition. Moreover, DSRTF only supports researchers and institutions that are committed to seeing their basic research translated into effective treatments.

For a summary of the latest developments in cognitive research, please see the DSRTF home page.  DSRTF truly is doing remarkable work!

There are a number of events across the country and throughout the year that support DSRTF.  Last year's Romp for Research in NYC raised a considerable amount for Down syndrome research and was lots of fun!  I hope to see you there this year.

Please consider a contribution if you are able.  I will apprecate it, "..more than words can wield the matter." (King Lear, Shakespeare)  

Thanks again!
