Organization that drives the development of disease-modifying treatments against Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Diabetes and other protein misfolding disorders through two independently managed business units: * Contract Research: The in-vivo Contract Research Organization (CRO) helps its clients to assess the pharmacokinetics and -dynamics of their experimental treatments against Alzheimer's disease. The main focus is on efficacy testing of candidate drugs in reMYND's proprietary Alzheimer mouse models expressing the clinical APP-London allele as single transgene or in combination with clinical alleles of human PS1 and TAU. * Drug Discovery: The Drug Discovery and Development Unit (DDD) focuses on disease-modifying treatments against protein-misfolding disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease (tau), Parkinson's disease (-synuclein), and Diabetes. In addition, reMYND grants licenses and markets commercial kits of RadarScreen, a technology for rapid and cost-effective identification of genotoxic liabilities in early stage drug discovery. reMYND has been substantially supported by grants from IWT and from The Michael J Fox Foundation.

A for-profit health data-sharing platform that can transform the way patients manage their conditions, change the way industry conducts research and improve patient care. PatientsLikeMe aligns patient and industry interests through data-sharing partnerships. They work with trusted nonprofit, research and industry Partners who use this health data to improve products, services and care for patients. They take the information patients share about their experience with the disease and sell it to their partners (i.e., companies that are developing or selling products to patients). These products may include drugs, devices, equipment, insurance, and medical services. Except for the restricted personal information entered when registering for the site, participants should expect that every piece of information submitted (even if it is not currently displayed) may be shared with their partners and any member of PatientsLikeMe, including other patients. They do not rent, sell or share personally identifiable information for marketing purposes or without explicit consent. Because they believe in transparency, they tell members exactly what they do and do not do with their data. Patients have the opportunity to share both personal stories and health data about their conditions to help uncover great ideas and new knowledge. By sharing information on the site, they can put their disease experiences in context and find answers to the questions they have. Every partnership we develop must bring them closer to aligning patient and industry interests. Their end goal is improved patient care and quality of life.

A brain bank and laboratory focused on memory and motor disorders. Brains are sent to the laboratory for diagnosis and research for the State of Florida Alzheimer Disease Initiative and for the Society for Progressive Supranuclear Palsy. As part of this brain banking function, fixed and frozen brain samples are obtained at autopsy and sent to the laboratory for diagnostic evaluation and for various types of research studies. The major types of analyses performed on the brain samples include neuro-histology, immunohistochemistry, confocal microscopy, electron microscopy and image analysis, as well as immunoassays. The latter are based upon Western blotting and enzyme linked immunoassays. The laboratory has a specific interest in the interface between normal aging and Alzheimer's disease, as well as in non-Alzheimer's degenerative disorders such as Lewy body dementia, corticobasal degeneration, progressive supranuclear palsy and frontotemporal dementia. The primary focus of research on aging is neuropathologic characterization of brains of individuals who had been prospectively and longitudinally evaluated during life. These studies aim to determine differences in a range of biologic parameters in brains of people with normal cognitive, mild cognitive impairment and dementia. Their focus on Parkinson's disease is to identify preclinical Parkinson's disease in order to develop means for early diagnosis.
