Incredibly excited to share we're in Philly tonight to fete @firyalrphd.bsky.social who was a 2026 Uplifting Athletes Draft pick supported by Cure VCP Disease Inc. These awards support early career researchers studying rare diseases. Firyal is working developing genetic therapies for VCP disease.

I’m excited to be 1 of 10 researchers selected to receive a $20,000 grant from Uplifting Athletes and Cure VCP Disease! This grant will aid my research and ultimately help those impacted by #RareDiseases. Join me as #WeTackleRare at the Young Investigator Draft on Jan. 31! #YID26 bit.ly/yid2026
