Funded Programs

Because of generous support from our donors and volunteers, the Jog for the Jake is able to give 100% of funds raised directly to neurological research and programs. The proceeds from the race stay in Buffalo and benefit cutting-edge research projects at the JNI which can lead to improvements in the treatment options and quality of care available to people suffering from neurological disease.

Here are a few examples of research projects that have been supported by proceeds from Jog for the Jake:

  • Development of fully automated software imaging program to provide quantified neuroimaging for stroke
  • Role of Exercise in Maintaining Bone Mineral Density in MS
  • Epileptiform EEG source localization as a function of multiple reconstruction algorithms (study for epilepsy)
  • Neuropsychological outcomes in children with demyelinating disease: a case-control study
  • 3-D Imaging to Examine the Pathology of MS Lesions
  • Omega-3 Inflammation Study
