Abstract
The Lymphoma Research Foundation (LRF) is the nation's largest nonprofit organization devoted exclusively to funding innovative lymphoma research and providing people with lymphoma and health care professionals with up-to-date information about this type of cancer. We are dedicated to funding biomedical research focused on the origins, treatment, and identification of a cure for lymphoma; to raising public awareness of the disease; and to providing support and services to people with lymphoma, their families, and caregivers. The Lymphoma Research Foundation has awarded more than $60 million in research grants to date. Guided by its world-leading Scientific Advisory Board (SAB), LRF has awarded over 340 evidence-based research grants since its inception, and with its unique commitment to young investigators, LRF continues to fund more than 40,000 research hours for early-career lymphoma scientists each year. LRF assists members of the lymphoma community by providing comprehensive, disease-specific programs and services, including Clinical Trials Information Services, Disease-Specific Publications and Websites, Focus on Lymphoma Mobile Apps, and In-person Workshops and Educational Forums.
