Research for a Cure

Research is Key in the Fight Against Lymphoma

Research is in our name—and at the heart of everything we do. Our funding, support, and people have been behind some of the most important innovations in treating lymphoma. For us, research is the beginning of a cure.

Since its inception, the Foundation has made major contributions to the lymphoma research enterprise, awarding more than 500 research grants totaling more than $82.7 million. The Foundation’s Scientific Advisory Board (SAB), comprised of 45 world-renowned lymphoma experts, guides the Foundation’s research activities, seeking out the most innovative and promising lymphoma research projects for support. We help to ensure that the best and brightest scientific minds can continue their commitment to blood cancer research.
