Fund Development Manager Job Description
The Neuroplasticity Alliance is a nonprofit organization born out of an interest to help grow an industry that we feel is the future of neurologic care. Our mission is to accelerate awareness of, access to, and development of neuroplastic treatments in order to change the trajectory of patients and families affected by brain and neurologic dysfunction. We want neuroplastic treatments to become a 1st line of defense rather than a last resort. In practice, this requires building bridges between neuroplasticity visionaries, the best practitioners, the brightest innovators, and forward-thinking investors.
