Our team is on their way to San Diego for #MPS2018! We can't wait to catch up on all the science and also visit with our #HunterSyndrome#MPSII family at the breakout session Friday evening (8/3) from 6:30-9:30pm.
Friends and followers, we’re now (finally) @projectalive on Twitter just like we are on Facebook and Instagram.
When you want to tag or DM us, remember that our handle now matches our name!
We love the #NBA but we’re a bit divided. Noah is head over heels that the @warriors are up two games, and Case is rooting for his mama’s hometown team the @cavs. We’re doing #whateverittakes to fund a cure and seeing the #strengthinnumbers as people come together for #15foracure
Thanks @mcuban for your $250K donation to #ProjectAlive in honor of Simon Ibell. We're touched you'd honor Simon's legacy in this way and propel us closer to saving kids' lives THIS YEAR. We're loving this throwback to the @dallasmavs 2011 NBA Championship with Simon!

Last week at @WORLDSymposia, we met with pharma and biotech companies, patient advocacy groups, and relevant service providers. We heard new science, saw incredible results, and felt pangs of disappointment. It is all that which urges us on toward a cure for #HunterSyndrome.
2017 Milestones achieved by YOU and #ProjectAlive:
1. You gave over $100K on #GivingTuesday
2. You gave over $1M in 2017
3. We signed $1.4M gene vector mfg agreement
4. FDA approved IND for clinical trial
2018 is the year of the cure!

We’re so thankful for all of the @NBA players and legends and the guys at @NBAonTNT for getting behind #HunterSyndrome awareness and our work to fund a cure!
It DOES work. Trial design was not ideal. Age equivalencies instead of normed cognitive scores should have been used as endpoint. Secondary endpoint data, yet to come, will include age equivalencies. Also patient level data has greater clarity in a disease like #HunterSyndrome.
