The Harrington family partnered with University Hospitals to launch the Harrington Discovery Institute in 2012 with an ambitious goal to make a meaningful, positive impact on health challenges affecting millions of people around the world. In partnership with the University of Oxford, Harrington Discovery Institute established the Oxford-Harrington Rare Disease Centre to address the enormous unmet need in rare disease across the globe and deliver clinical impact for patients. The Centre recently launched a Therapeutics Accelerator to identify, fund and advance innovative projects from academic partners across the U.S. and U.K., with the goal to deliver 40 new, potentially life- saving therapies for rare diseases into clinical trials over the next 10 years.
