  Two Grants Available for Research on Generalized Lymphatic Anomaly and Gorham-Stout Disease

  The Orphan Disease Center is offering 39 research opportunities focusing on 23 different rare diseases. This program provides a one-year grant to support research related to a rare disease represented in the 2018 Million Dollar Bike Ride.

  Of the 23 rare diseases on the list, two grants of $50,535 are available for basic science and/or clinical research on Generalized Lymphatic Anomaly (GLA; a.k.a. lymphangiomatosis) and Gorham-Stout Disease (GSD), diseases covered by our VASCA-WG. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to, genetic analysis, biomarker identification, cell line creation and characterization, and imaging.

  These two grants are made possible by Team LGDA (Lymphangiomatosis & Gorham’s Disease Alliance) and Team LMI (Lymphatic Malformation Institute).

  Deadline for submitting a Letter of Interest is by Monday, September 10th, 2018 by 8pm EST.
