As the largest private funding source of rheumatology research and training in the U.S., the REF has awarded over $50 million to more than 1,000 recipients in the past five years. As a result, rheumatologists and health care professionals gain the knowledge and resources to provide their patients with the best possible care. With your support, the REF will continue to lead the way in helping rheumatologists improve the lives of individuals and families impacted by rheumatic diseases. Get involved today and help ensure the future of rheumatology!
