About us
The Research!America alliance advocates for science, discovery, and innovation to achieve better health for all. We urge Congress and the administration to increase funding for the National Institutes of Health (NIH), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and National Science Foundation (NSF) at levels that keep pace with scientific opportunity. We also advocate for federal funding for global health research and a legislative and regulatory climate that stimulates growth in private sector research and development.

Did you know that nearly 25% of children are affected by a skin disease, and that children and adolescents with chronic skin disorders are likely to experience depression, stigmatization, bullying and suicidality at rates nearly doubling those without these conditions? (https://bit.ly/47erSrt) The more parents (and grandparents and aunts and uncles and brothers and sisters and clinicians and all the rest of us) know about this underrecognized area of health, healthcare, and research, the better able we will be to help children and adolescents today and tomorrow. Which brings me to an important question: What are you doing tomorrow - Wednesday, 9/4/24 - at noon ET? No plans and you love short-notice invitations? Perfect! Join a lunch break-sized conversation on Zoom with Mike Siegel, PhD, Executive Director of the Pediatric Dermatology Research Alliance (PeDRA). Research!America has asked Mike to shed light on the nature and burden of skin conditions affecting children and adolescents, and the ways researchers are working to prevent, treat, and end these stealth threats to the health and wellbeing of kids everywhere. Bring your questions and personal experience to this informal, interactive conversation. Register here: https://bit.ly/4gcSSvC
