VF Funded Research
Research Program
The Vasculitis Foundation (VF) is the largest private funder of research on vasculitis. We collaborate with researchers around the world to fund the most promising studies. The program is guided by the VF Scientific Advisory Board which reviews, critiques and ranks the applications and provides guidance to the VF Board of Directors on the selection of studies to fund.
To date, the Vasculitis Foundation has awarded over 3 million dollars in research funds and has helped fund over 80 studies. The VF Research Program is funded by donations, honors, memorials and special fundraising events from people, like you, who are passionate about advancing treatment for vasculitis.
