    Research Programs:

    Research Programs: The Cure is Now is ultimately committed to supporting groundbreaking research. Although the Awareness Campaigns and Education Initiatives are important, actual research is what lies at the heart of The Cure is Now. We are committed to bring life-saving cures to the public through the development of emerging and advanced technologies that are applied to medical treatments. The Cure is Now will support research via a three-step process: Phase 1 – Begin funding independent research and establishing a research, leadership & coordination center. Phase 2 – Build and staff small research cells. There will be four to start with: one in New York because it is poised to become a biotechnological hub, and is one of the financial centers of the world, one in Cambridge, MA because it is an academic center, one in Silicon Valley because it is a technology sector incubator, and an Advanced Research Facility, which will operate overseas specifically so that it can legally, morally & ethically operate outside of draconian political agendas and other practical restrictions, while respecting human rights and human life. Locations would include Africa and/or the Caribbean for clinical trials. Additionally Eastern Europe has demonstrated itself as a cost effective place to conduct research with well-educated, qualified and capable scientists that would offer significant and substantial savings while maintaining the high quality of research results and data capture. Phase 3 – Build, staff and manage a world-class research facility in New York City, firstly because New York is a strategically beneficial location and secondly because of the continued initiatives to establish New York as a biotechnological hub with advantages that only New York City can offer. Ancillary facilities that are not required to be at a central city hub will be located in less expensive areas. Guided by our research methodology, our lead scientists will work toward novel treatments and medicines to help us live longer, healthy lives. http://thecureisnow.org/index.php/our-strategy/program-summary/research-programs
