Cocktails for a Cause

Thank You For Attending the 20th Annual Cocktails for a Cause!

This blockbuster event shattered new records this year. Six Hundred of our closest friends came out to support the MRJBF at the Chicago Cultural Center on November 2, 2012. We raised over $80,000 for our researcher, Dr. Koh.

Check back for our upcoming events in the new year!

MRJBF Supports Dr. Sookyong Koh

Dr. Koh is a neurologist with a clinical and research specialization in epilepsy. Her research is greatly focused on the processes by which seizures in early life increase the risk for developing epilepsy later in childhood or during adulthood.

With the funding from the MRJBF and other sources, Dr. Koh and her team aim to significantly improve treatment of epilepsy in children.
