SUPPORT
RESEARCH AND EDUCATION IN NEUROENDOCRINE AND PITUITARY DISORDERS
The
MGH Research Program and the Neuroendocrine Clinical Center
The Neuroendocrine Clinical Center is an internationally recognized
multidisciplinary referral center for the diagnosis, evaluation
and treatment of both pituitary tumors and disorders of the
hypothalamic-pituitary region. The Center closely coordinates
all aspects of care and offers the ready availability of endocrinologists,
neurologists, neurosurgeons, radiation oncologists and psychiatrists
as necessary. The Neuroendocrine Clinical Center at the Massachusetts
General Hospital is unique in the number of talented scientists
who have the opportunity to work in direct contact with clinicians
in a leading medical center. The MGH Neuroendocrine Clinical
Center is renowned for treatment of disorders affecting the
endocrine function of the hypothalamus and pituitary gland and
has one of the largest research programs in this area in the
world. Areas of special expertise include:
- Pituitary
Tumors, Prolactin Disorders,
- Cushing's
Syndrome
- Acromegaly
- Neuroendocrine
Effects of Radiation Therapy
- Hypopituitarism
and Hormone Replacement
- Effects
of Ptuitary Diorders on Oteoporosis Risk, and
- The Diagnosis
and Treatment of GH deficiency.
How
Can You Support Neuroendocrine and Pituitary Research?
The
goal of MGH Neuroendocrine Clinical Center is to develop and
implement innovative therapies that will benefit people with
neuroendocrine and pituitary disorders. The unique multi-disciplinary
structure of the MGH Neuroendocrine Clinical Center has helped
make our center a recognized leader in this field since it's
inception in 1985. Our work enables innovative approaches and
treatment to come from investigators directly into clinical
care. Our research funding comes almost entirely from NIH, foundation
grants, and Industrial support. This support is targeted for
specific projects, without funds for new innovative pilot studies
or educational programs. Flexible funds to foster new ideas
are critically needed. Many exciting research findings in the
laboratory can lead to the development of new therapies. Your
support can make a critical difference in the development of
such therapies.
