Impact That Matters

Therapeutic Research In Accelerated Discovery (TRIAD)
 

TRIAD = Academia + Government + Industry

TRIAD Partners

Our TRIAD partners include innovative biotech & pharmaceutical companies, award-winning researchers at top-tier universities, and those spanning the drug discovery, drug development, and diagnostics continuum.

Partnerships vary depending on research goals, milestones met in preclinical or clinical development, and strategic alliance agreements.

TRIAD & GRIN

As part of TRIAD, in 2013, the Global Registry for Inherited Neuropathies (GRIN) was developed to conduct patient-focused research & development for treatments and cures. The patient voice is at the forefront of all we do. By incorporating the patient voice from the beginning, our research programs have the greatest potential for success. HNF funds research with one goal in mind; advancing to clinical trials.

TRIAD Council

The TRIAD Council is composed of CMT thought leaders, experts, and consultants engaged in collaborative planning and decision-making to provide regular guidance and direction to our research strategy. This network of professionals reviews grant proposals, provides expert guidance, and assesses project outcomes to advance therapeutic development for CMT.
