An Eastern alum is helping bring a potential ALS treatment one step closer to patients. 💙

Marc Freeman ’93 is at the forefront of research into neurological diseases like ALS, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. His team's discoveries have helped advance an experimental drug into human clinical trials focused on ALS. 🧬 🔬

Now one of the nation's leading neurobiologists and a 2026 inductee into the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, Freeman returned to Eastern to share his journey.

And here's what makes his story even more remarkable: He never took a neuroscience course at Eastern. It was the mentorship of two Eastern professors that helped set his career in motion.

Read more about his research and the Eastern roots behind it on Inside Eastern! 🔗 in bio.
