An estimated five million people worldwide live with lupus, a disease that, until recently, lacked any specialized treatments. Today, several targeted therapies exist—thanks in large part to the Lupus Research Alliance (LRA), the world’s largest private funder of lupus research. Joining us to discuss their impact and the upcoming Walk With Us to Cure Lupus in Manhattan on Saturday, October 24, is Nicole Capossela, Chief Advancement Officer for the LRA. Notably, 100% of all donations from the walk go directly to funding lifesaving research.
