Mission Statement

The Parsemus Foundation works to create meaningful improvements in human and animal health and welfare by advancing innovative and neglected medical research.

About This Cause

The Foundation's focus is on supporting small proof-of-concept studies and promoting awareness of the results, so that the advances change treatment practice rather than disappearing into the scientific literature. Many of the studies we support involve low-cost approaches that are not under patent. When supporting development of technologies under patent, the Parsemus Foundation coordinates with larger funders to make sure support is contingent upon strong public-sector pricing agreements. Current areas of focus are contraceptive development (particularly long-acting nonhormonal male methods); nonhormonal, nonsurgical sterilization for animals; and noninvasive treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia.
