Building the Future of Health - Gilbert Family Foundation Elevates Rehab & Research

In a momentous move, the Gilbert Family Foundation, in conjunction with Henry Ford Health and Shirley Ryan AbilityLab, has announced their collaboration to usher in an advanced physical medicine and rehabilitation facility in Detroit. This partnership is rooted in Dan Gilbert's personal experience with the Chicago-based Shirley Ryan AbilityLab, a top-ranking rehabilitation research hospital known for its unparalleled expertise in treating patients with stroke, spinal cord injury, and traumatic brain injuries. This personal bond was forged after Gilbert's 2019 stroke and the incredible recovery journey he experienced at the facility, fueling his desire to bring such premier medical care to Detroit. Moreover, the Gilbert Family Foundation is championing the realm of neurofibromatosis (NF) research, an endeavor deeply personal to the Gilberts, given their eldest son Nick's battle with the disease. The Nick Gilbert Neurofibromatosis Research Institute, a pioneering entity dedicated solely to NF research, is set to be a cornerstone of this initiative. Teaming up with Henry Ford Health and Michigan State University Health Sciences, this institute not only promises to lead groundbreaking research but also holds the potential to revolutionize medical approaches with its focus on organoid technology - a technique that facilitates the growth of "mini organs" for advanced drug testing. With generous financial pledges, including $119 million from the Gilbert Family Foundation, Detroit is poised for transformative advancements in the medical field. Additionally, Henry Ford Health's vision to reshape its primary campus in Detroit synergizes perfectly with these novel initiatives. As Detroit braces for these medical landmarks, the prospects of economic upliftment through job creation and the city's elevation as a medical research and healthcare hub are more tangible than ever. #GilbertFamilyFoundation #ShirleyRyanAbilityLab #Detroit #Neurofibromatosis #Rehab #Research #HenryFordHealth #MichiganStateUniversity ______________________________________________________ Want to hear more from Henry Ford Health?
