CDMRP Grant Funding Announced

Posted by John Risner in Untagged 

We ask our supporters through the spring and summer to join our advocacy program to lobby Congress for continued funding of NF research through the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Program-NF Research Program.

The results of this work can be seen here:  http://cdmrp.army.mil/funding/nfrp.shtml

The CDRMP recently announced the grants available for FY2012.  These funds were made available through the work of the NF community last year.  Our advocacy campaign for FY2013, was launched in February and currently focuses on the House of Representatives.  When the House finishes their work on the bill and it moves to the Senate, which is expected to be in June or July, we will again be contacting you to email your Senators to continue this vital program.

Thank you for your past support of this program,

John Risner
