HSF FTP HS Research Database
Supporting those with HS and those who study & treat HS

A considerable amount of Hidradenitis Suppurativa research has been conducted over the years, yet many of these documents are not easily accessible to either medical professionals or patients. By increasing the availability of past and current medical research, the HSF seeks to improve the quality of life for people with HS, enhance the quality of medical care they receive, and raise the profile and understanding of this disease on a global basis. The HSF also hopes to encourage and hasten research by providing this resource.

The HSF Research Database empowers and facilitates varying degrees of direct patient support by providing information to government, legal, health and social service organizations, as well as patient advocacy/self-help and support groups around the world. The HSF Database is a tribute to all of the people who have suffered from HS, and an acknowledgment and thanks to those who have volunteered to be studied. It is also an honor roll of the caring doctors and researchers who have helped illuminate the mysteries of HS.

Providing such a comprehensive, valuable and accurate resource takes a considerable amount of time, effort, and expense. Thanks to your financial support, we are able to continually expand and maintain this priceless resource. Please visit our donate page and help us help those with HS.

All of the documents are presented in PDF format, listed by publication date and author. You must have a user name and password to access the FTP database, as well as Adobe Acrobat Reader to view the documents. Please submit the form below to access this FREE database.
