CureNeuro recently entered Google's
Project 10^100 (pronounced "Project 10 to the
100th") contest. Google is calling for ideas to change
the world by helping as many people as possible. Under the
'Health' category, CureNeuro proposes to help individuals
lead longer, healthier lives by creating the NeuroNet, a web-based
research and funding network that revolutionizes connectivity
and efficiency in the development of treatments and cures
for brain diseases.
On January 27th, 2009, the public will have the opportunity
to vote on some of the top suggestions.
That's when YOU can vote for the NeuroNet!
From there, an advisory board will be reviewing the top
20 finalists to find up to five ideas that they will bring
to life.
For more information on the project or to sign up for
a reminder to vote, visit:

CureNeuro recently became a member of the Neurotechnology
Industry Organization. NIO is a trade association representing
companies, research centers and advocacy groups from around
the world. Their mission is to accelerate treatments and cures
for brain and nervous system diseases by increasing the awareness
of neurotechnologies, reducing barriers to innovation, and
supporting long term industry growth. CureNeuro is excited
about the numerous ways we can collaborate and grow as an
organization by working with NIO and numerous partner organizations.

Ultimate Cure (in article section below), which appeared
