Dear Friend,

Our research would greatly benefit from additional private funding. One hundred percent of your donation will go towards our research costs. These costs include laboratory equipment, supplies, and salaries. We appreciate your help as we work towards better treatment of cardiac and muscle diseases. If you have any questions about donating or about our research in general, please don't hesitate to contact us at swankd@rpi.edu

Sincerely,
Douglas Swank, PhD
