The Alzheimer's Drug Discovery Foundation (ADDF) hosted part two of their popular new live lecture series entitled Tomorrow’s Breakthroughs Today at the Norton Museum of Art outdoors in the Pamela and Robert B. Goergen Garden. Featured speaker Dr. Frank Longo is the George E. and Lucy Becker Professor and Chair of the Department of Neurology and Neurological Sciences at Stanford University and Founder of PharmatrophiX.

The drug has gone through phase two clinical trials and is ready to move on to phase three. Dr. Howard Fillit, Co-Founder and Chief Science Officer at the ADDF, moderated the discussion.
Notable guests including Gary and Laura Lauder, Josh Lauder and Katherine Chan, Tom and Heidi McWilliams, Nancy Goodes, and esteemed philanthropist Bonnie Lautenberg, were among nearly 90 supporters who attended the lecture.
