Events

Former EFNE Board Member, Frank Salituro, and his band, Almost the Cure (ATC) , are back to rock out for epilepsy at the 10th Annual Battle of the Biotech Bands! 

Almost the Cure won this event in 2022 and are looking forward to raising more funds for the Joseph’s Hope Scholarship Fund at EFNE.

"Where else can you see scientists + charity + rock bands together on one stage? A networking event truly unlike any other - an evening not to miss that our industry looks forward to every year."

Historically, the winning band won 50% of the event proceeds for their nonprofit beneficiary, while the other bands equally divided up the remaining proceeds for their charities.  

Almost the Cure has raised more than $250,000 for the Joseph's Hope Scholarship Fund & Financial Assistance Fund.

All coming from the biopharmaceutical industry, although different companies, members of ATC are as passionate about their music as they are of their quest towards scientific breakthroughs and the discovery of new medicines.  ATC has embarked on a mission of becoming a high-energy, edgy, and most of all, fun rock and roll band, along with fostering a strong sense of community.
