Innovation/The Redstone Acceleration and Innovation Network (TRAIN)
Disease research organizations focus on curing diseases, not fixing the research system. But they are all delayed, and occasionally defeated, by the same systemic, cultural obstacles that slow medical progress. At FasterCures, it is our mission to knock down these obstacles so researchers won't have to, so every patient can benefit.
The Redstone Acceleration and Innovation Network (TRAIN) – named to honor the generous support of Sumner Redstone – was established to create opportunities for medical research innovators to discuss and tackle the challenges that cut across diseases.
TRAIN's mission is to:
- Catalyze the innovative activities of participating disease research organizations;
- Accelerate communication, learning, and discovery across a range of diseases;
- Promote heightened use of medical research resources and a higher level of organizational effectiveness;
- Identify, promote, and facilitate innovation in the scientific, methodological, and systemic aspects of disease research generally.
