Harry Potter Author JK Rowling Donates 15.3 Million Pounds to MS Research Centre

EDINBURGH: “Harry Potter” author JK Rowling has donated 15.3 million pounds ($18 million) to support research into multiple sclerosis (MS) and neurological conditions at a centre here named after her mother. The Anne Rowling Regenerative Neurology Clinic at the University of Edinburgh was established with a 10 million pounds donation from the author in 2010, the BBC reported. Her latest donation will help create new facilities and support research. Anne Rowling died aged 45 from complications related to MS. The centre is an integrated care and research facility focusing on MS and neurological conditions with the aim of bringing more clinical studies and trials to patients. “When the Anne Rowling Clinic was first founded, none of us could have predicted the incredible progress that would be made in the field of regenerative neurology, with the clinic leading the charge,” JK Rowling said in a statement on Wednesday.
