Scientist Wins Major Canadian Mental Health Research Award

Dr. Jean-Martin Beaulieu

If you need any more encouragement to believe that One Mind / Johnson & Johnson Rising Star Awardee Dr. Jean-Martin Beaulieu truly has scientific chops, look no further than this announcement: The First Royal-Mach-Gaensslen Prize for Mental Health is Awarded to Dr. Jean Martin Beaulieu

The news of this award underscores venture philanthropy in action-Dr. Beaulieu’s pioneering, Rising Star Award-funded investigations into the development of safer bipolar disorder medications have helped him to win it. Donors to One Mind: you should feel ten feet tall.

To further add to the virtuous cycle, Dr. Beaulieu says, “I intend to use part of the money and exposure to lobby for the creation of an equivalent to One Mind in Canada.” All of us here at One Mind thank Dr. Beaulieu for his will to propagate brain health research philanthropy, and hope to assist him in this important work.
