Foundation for Sickle Cell Disease Research (FSCDR) was founded by Dr. Lanetta Bronté in December 2012 after working closely with the sickle cell community and noticing the extreme lack of care for a disease that affects 3 million people nationwide. Dr. Bronté serves as principal investigator on grants and industry-sponsored trials in sickle cell disease.
The FSCDR is a comprehensive, non-profit organization that provides a platform for researchers, healthcare providers, and those living with sickle cell disease. Working collaboratively with academia, pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and community organizations, the best practices are identified to help with the management and future care of people living with sickle cell disease.
