Our six-month milestone update

In just the last six months, we have made incredible tangible progress in advancing research, raising awareness, and strengthening collaborations. With each achievement, we bring ourselves closer to our ultimate goal of finding a cure for follicular lymphoma and improving the lives of those affected by this type of cancer. These incredible achievements couldn’t have been possible without the generous support and contributions from the FLF community. Thank you for your unwavering support.

CURE FL Awardees: Investing in vital research 

Following an extensive and competitive selection process, we proudly announced our first four exceptional CURE FL awardees. These deserving researchers have been chosen to receive funding and support from the FLF. Over the next two years, the FLF will be investing $2 million into vital research projects focused on cellular immunotherapies and targeted therapies. We eagerly anticipate launching our second cycle this summer, continuing our commitment to supporting ground-breaking research in the fight against FL. Learn more about the awardees.

Symposium at ASH: Shining a spotlight on FL

Members of the FLF team were delighted to attend the American Society of Haematology (ASH) in New Orleans at the end of last year. As part of this, we were welcomed to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society event where we announced our four CURE FL awardees. This event served as a fantastic platform to bring attention to follicular lymphoma. It also allowed us to foster valuable relationships with key researchers, academics, clinicians and Life Science companies which we’re still building on to this day. Our presence at ASH allowed us to showcase our work, raise awareness about FL, and have lots of meetings with industry and top scientists. View our reflections on ASH here.
