“Live Like Lou” – donates $500,000 — to the University of Pittsburgh’s Brain Institute
. . .

"Finally, the inspiring story of the fight, in Pittsburgh – against ALS – better-known, as Lou Gehrig’s Disease – and the heroic efforts of Suzanne Alexander – who lost her young husband, Neil, in 2015, to that disease – to unlock the secrets of ALS, slow its progression, and perhaps, ultimately find a cure.

Suzanne and Neil – just after his ALS diagnosis – founded “Live Like Lou” – a donor-advised fund of the Pittsburgh Foundation, to raise awareness of ALS, provide comfort and care, to its victims, and support scientific research to study ALS.

Suzanne Alexander joins us – Sunday morning – to talk about a recent donation from– to advance research about Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). Also with us, is Chris Donnelly, Ph.D. – Assistant Professor of Neurobiology, at the University of Pittsburgh, and a member of the University of Pittsburgh’s Brain Institute and Live Like Lou Center for ALS Research.

Please join Jon Delano, Sunday morning at 6:30 a.m., for “The Sunday Business Page”, on KDKA-TV."
