Lupus Research Alliance

Albert Roy, president of the Lupus Research Alliance, discusses the efforts his team are making to combat the underrepresentation of minorities in clinical trials as well as the scientific research profession.

Carola Vinuesa, MD, PhD, recipient of the Lupus Research Alliance Lupus Insight Prize, discovered a mutation in a specific human gene that causes systemic lupus erythematosus.

The collaboration, titled the Lupus Accelerating Breakthroughs Consortium (Lupus ABC), is the first public-private partnership designed to advance lupus discoveries and highlight patient perspective in drug development.
