Curing Diseases Together

Harrington Discovery Institute is leading the way, forging new paths and advancing drug development in a variety of disease areas, including cancer, heart, brain health and rare diseases. More than just passion and persistence, we are also the product of philanthropy.

Our Challenge

500 Million+ patients

are living with diseases without available treatments.

Today, we face a major gap between promising scientific discoveries and new medicines due to a lack of financial resources and guidance for scientists. Interest from pharmaceutical companies and venture capitalists can only be attracted once discoveries have been shown to have strong potential for commercial success.

Harrington Discovery Institute fills this critical gap by providing philanthropic funding and drug development and business development expertise to advance promising discoveries out of academic labs and into the commercial realm where they can make it to patients.
