" A World Where Schizophrenia is No Longer a Life Sentence Our mission is to transform the landscape of mental health by discovering a cure for schizophrenia. Affecting approximately 1% of the global population—about 78 million people—schizophrenia is currently a lifelong struggle. For those with a strong support network, it means enduring a continual cycle of psychiatric treatments and medications while grappling with debilitating symptoms, side effects, and societal stigma. For those without such support, it often leads to a grim reality of substance dependence, homelessness, and, tragically, a heightened risk of suicide, with around 10% of individuals with schizophrenia taking their own lives. Having witnessed the harsh realities firsthand, we understand that even with extensive love and resources, life with schizophrenia is often a diminished existence. Our mission transcends raising awareness or shifting public perception. We are dedicated to assembling the most brilliant minds to identify the root causes and develop a groundbreaking cure, aiming to restore a full and vibrant life to those affected."
