At the ripe age of 50, NYU Neurologist Tom Wisniewski has taken it upon himself to put his body through a grueling 26 mile run all in the name of autism research.
Dr. Wisniewski decided to raise money for his research by running in the New York City Marathon that takes place on November 6. The marathon goes through all of the city’s five boroughs and attracts over 100,000 participants each year.
