HOPES

Help 4 HD Live!

HOPES is a student-run project at Stanford University dedicated to making scientific information about Huntington’s disease (HD) more readily accessible to patients and the public. Their goal is to survey the rapidly growing scientific and clinical literature on Huntington’s disease, and to present this information in a coherent, reliable web resource. We are excited to have Stanford student Cole Holderman on with us! Cole is the student director of HOPES at Stanford University, a project dedicated to helping families, patients, and the general public learn more about Huntington's Disease. Cole has been with HOPES for most of his undergraduate career and has served as a writer for the group's website (hopes.stanford.edu) a point of contact for the local HDSA support group, and a leader for other members of the HOPES team. In addition to his work with HOPES, Cole is also a board member of HDSA Northern California, the HDSA National Youth Association Lead for California, and a student at Stanford University, where he studies Human Disease, Communication, Bioethics, and Cellular Biology.
