The mission of the American Lung Association is to save lives by enhancing lung health and preventing lung disease, with a focus on defeating lung cancer, creating a tobacco-free future, championing clean air for all, and improving the quality of life for those affected by lung disease and their families.
The Allergic Respiratory Diseases Award, a collaboration between the American Lung Association and the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology (AAAAI), aims to support researchers focused on understanding allergic respiratory disease. This grant encourages applicants with a primary faculty position in Clinical Allergy and Immunology at an academic medical center. With a funding amount of $75,000 per year for up to two years, the grant is particularly directed at researchers at critical stages of their careers, advancing knowledge in the field of allergic respiratory diseases.
