The Cutaneous Lymphoma Foundation is also committed to funding
promising research that can lead to improved therapies and, one day, a
cure for cutaneous lymphoma. To that end, the Foundation established
a new CLF Research Awards Program in early 2012, the first dedicated
exclusively to funding cutaneous lymphoma research.

RESEARCH AWARDS PROGRAM
In 2012, the Cutaneous Lymphoma Foundation established a new
Research Awards Program, the first research program dedicated
exclusively to funding cutaneous lymphoma research. This program
will support investigators interested in conducting innovative
cutaneous lymphoma research designed to investigate the causes
and improve treatments, clinical care and quality of life for patients.
Discovering new avenues for better therapies and, one day, a cure for
cutaneous lymphoma are key aims of this program.
With ongoing support of donors, the sustainability of this program
will leverage federal and industry resources and grow the cutaneous
lymphoma research agenda.
We’ll be sharing more about our exciting new Research Awards
Program on our website at
