Ms. Susan Gilman, Executive Assistant, at the Brain Research Foundation was kind enough to forward us photos taken at their Annual Discovery Dinner. We so appreciate the opportunity to once again showcase MK Shannon Awards (our third year) and at the same time offer you the opportunity to take a closer look at this amazing organization. There is so much positive energy present within this organization. One look at the award recipient’s faces, says it all! We are grateful to The Brain Research Foundation as are so many people throughout our country!
