CurePSP Center of Care at Stanford
We are proud to represent the CurePSP Center of Care at Stanford University! The CurePSP Centers of Care network was formed in 2018 to connect people diagnosed with progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), corticobasal degeneration (CBD), and multiple system atrophy (MSA), and related neurodegenerative diseases, and to connect the medical centers specializing in their care. Each Center of Care aims to provide the best possible clinical care to support their disease management and quality of life. Medical centers have been designated a CurePSP Center of Care through eligibility criteria centered around leadership in specialized therapies and treatment options, comprehensive support services, and clinical research dedicated to PSP, CBD, and MSA.
