2024 Translational Research Grant Recipients Tackle Innovation at the Molecular Level

March 12, 2024

The Hidradenitis Suppurativa Foundation proudly announces the 2024 recipients of its Translational Research Grant Program—an initiative created to stimulate and support novel research ideas in the field of HS that show strong potential to secure long-term funding from the National Institutes of Health or other major funding agencies. Each awardee receives $75,000 to support one-year projects with strong potential to advance the understanding and treatment of HS. Congratulations to the recipients below for their commitment to pushing the boundaries of translational science in HS.
