Washington State Life Sciences Discovery Fund (LSDF) Awards I-LABS 4 Million Dollar Grant for Child Brain Imaging Center

April 17, 2008 - We are pleased to announce that I-LABS was notified today that it won a highly competitive Life Sciences Discovery Fund (LSDF) award. LSDF will support the development of the Institute’s Child Brain Imaging Center by funding the purchase of a magnetoencephalography (MEG) brain imaging machine. Our new Child Brain Imaging Center will be a first-in-the-nation. Generous private support from donors, as well as substantial support from the University of Washington, played important roles in helping us secure the LSDF award.

We are grateful beyond words to all of the I-LABS supporters, especially our Board of Advisors, who were deeply instrumental in helping us realize this dream. We will keep you posted on the progress of the new Child Brain Imaging Center, and are already beginning to look forward to a grand opening celebration.

Thank you for helping all of our children.

Warmly,

Pat Kuhl, Andy Meltzoff, and the UW I-LABS team
