Scleroderma Research Foundation
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Scleroderma Research Foundation ("SRF") is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization. Its mission is to find improved therapies and a cure for scleroderma by funding research and Scleroderma Centers of Excellence, which provide multi-specialty clinical care in dedicated facilities throughout the US, including Scleroderma Centers of Excellence at the Johns Hopkins University, Duke University and University of Washington, Seattle.
Over two decades, the SRF has raised millions of dollars for scleroderma research from public and US government grants. The Foundation funds research based on careful review and recommendations by its Scientific Advisory Board. The Foundation's website provides information on treatments, research and its fundraising event, Cool Comedy -- Hot Cuisine. It is the publisher of a non-technical magazine on the disease, Insights.
