“As a boy, I saw the crippling effects of Parkinson’s disease on my uncle John. As the disease progressed, my tender, outgoing, and physically strong uncle regressed to a withdrawn, disconnected and physically disabled shadow of his former self. Equally tragic to the disease was the extreme burden of care placed upon my aunt Naomi. Every part of her life – emotional, physical, financial – suffered as the disease slowly, yet relentlessly, took her husband from her.

In the decades since John’s passing, the science of lysosomal biology and the innate immune system have progressed so that we can both understand and address the underlying pathology of Parkinson’s and related neurodegenerative diseases.

Now is the time: I am privileged to lead the science of Vanqua Bio, establish scientific alliances, and come alongside of advocacy groups so that we can discover and develop novel therapies. Together, we will alleviate the suffering of patients, lessen the monumental burden of care, and increase longevity for all.”

– Kevin Hunt, CSO

Why We Love Chicago

Stunning architecture, beautiful lakefront, highly rated restaurants, rich cultural landscape, top tier universities and research institutions, and world class professional sports teams are just a few reasons Chicago is a wonderful city to call home. As the largest city in the Midwest, it has a touch of humbleness at its core. With ample public transportation options, many Chicagoans prefer not to have a car. Hundreds of daily non stop flights in and out of O’Hare International Airport connect Chicago with the rest of the country and the world. Chicago hosts countless sporting events and cultural activities throughout the year.  Our museums, Navy Pier and Millennium Park all provide beautiful views and entertainment.
