The Alfred Mann Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to developing and commercializing innovative solutions for significant unmet medical conditions. At the Alfred Mann Foundation, we strive to find solutions for medical problems that often have few other treatments. In our non-profit environment, we are free to take on long-term, high-risk challenges as well as to develop technology that can benefit those who suffer from conditions that have smaller populations of patients and groups who may not receive the attention paid to higher-profile diseases or injuries. Our talented and diverse staff and our world-class research facility allow us to take development from the seed of an idea through prototyping and quality control all the way to manufacturing a device that can be used in a clinical trial.

The mission of the Foundation for the National Institutes of Health (FNIH) is to foster public health through scientific discovery, translational research and the dissemination of research results through specially-configured, high-impact public-private partnerships consistent with the priorities of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). The FNIH is not only involved in large, ambitious initiatives with potentially high impact on the lives of millions of the world`s citizens, but it also supports smaller focused programs in clinical training and ancillary support programs. The FNIH helps to underwrite biomedical initiatives that might not be attractive for private funding alone, or for one reason or another are not appropriate for wholly public funding. The FNIH may take on projects that are particularly risky in terms of the likelihood of success or where companies may be willing to forgo profits because of early stage nature of the program or in the case of some global health initiatives due to the charitable nature of the project. The FNIH`s projects tend to be longer-term, operating on a time scale that can be unattractive for private investors. At the same time the foundation is capable of responding quickly and nimbly to funding needs that are immediate and pressing. With the goals of NIH as its guide, the FNIH serves both the public and private sectors, helping them achieve significant breakthroughs in human health in areas of interest that overlap with those of NIH.
