Research

A robust medical research effort is essential to find the causes of lupus, develop more effective treatments, and eventually cure the disease.

2009 LFA Research Funding Opportunities

The Lupus Foundation of America, Inc. (LFA) is the foremost national nonprofit organization dedicated to finding the causes of and cure for lupus and providing services to people affected by lupus. Lupus is a complex disorder that continues to cause significant morbidity and mortality. Although basic science and therapeutic advances are being made, substantial work remains to fully understand the epidemiology, etiology, pathogenesis and clinical impact of these disorders. New diagnostic and prognostic tests, as well as directed therapeutic interventions, are still needed.
