Partners
Treeway highly values collaboration. Only through collaborations is it possible to speed up the translation of research findings into potential therapeutics.
Therefore, we continue to establish close and long-lasting relationships with select academic partners, who have extensive expertise in the field of ALS or drug development. We highly value our collaborations with several universities and research centers in Europe, Asia and the USA, for both grant requests and speeding up translational research.

Project MinE was initiated by the founders of Treeway, Bernard Muller and Robbert Jan Stuit and is the largest ALS research consortium devoted to discovering the genetic make-up for ALS. Project MinE’s goal is to identify genes associated with ALS, whose function may lead to disease pathways.
Alzheimer’s Drug Development Foundation (ADDF)
The Alzheimer’s Drug Development Foundation is a one of the largest foundations in the United States and the only public charity focused solely funding the development of Alzheimer’s disease drugs. Its mission is to accelerate the discovery of drugs to prevent, treat and cure Alzheimer’s and other dementias.
