The ACR remains committed to promoting rheumatology research, advocating for increased funding, and building a better infrastructure to support research in arthritis and rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases. The ACR and all of its members understand the need for a strong academic-based rheumatology research effort. Through support of basic and clinical research efforts, subsequent improvement in the quality of life for our patients will follow.
