Project RESTORE

RESTORE is an acronym for REcover, STOp and REgenerate, emphasizing the three principles underlying RESTORE:

RECOVER

STOP

REGENERATE

The Johns Hopkins Project RESTORE was established in August 2004 as a collaborative multidisciplinary effort to advance our understanding of and develop new therapies for neuroimmunologic disorders.

In practice, this has meant forging collaborations and carrying out innovative research designed to profoundly enhance our understanding of neuroimmunologic disorders and to translate basic science findings into clinical therapies. By developing new treatments for neuroimmunologic disorders, we seek to Restore Hope, Restore Function, and Restore Lives to patients and families with these disorders.
