The Lupus Foundation of America Seeks Applications for its 2010 Gina M. Finzi Memorial Student Summer Fellowship Program
Date:1/12/2010

WASHINGTON, Jan. 12 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The Lupus Foundation of America, Inc. (LFA) is seeking applications for its 2010 Gina M. Finzi Memorial Student Summer Fellowship Program.  The purpose of these awards is to foster an interest among young investigators in lupus research under the supervision of an established investigator.  Undergraduate, graduate, and medical students are eligible to apply; however, preference is given to students with a college degree.

It has been 50 years since the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved a drug for lupus. The Gina M. Finzi Memorial Student Summer Fellowship Program is part of the LFA's National Research Program, Bringing Down the Barriers, which seeks to advance the science and medicine of lupus and bring down the barriers that have obstructed lupus research in the past.

Named after the daughter of former LFA President Emeritus Dr. Sergio Finzi, the Gina M. Finzi Memorial Student Summer Fellowship Program has supported the work of approximately 200 young investigators since it was founded in 1984. The purpose of these grants is to accelerate research related to the causes, treatments, prevention and cure of lupus, as well as to directly sponsor research focused on testing new approaches and developing experimental therapies or treatments.

The amount of the award is $2,000, and applications are due no later than 5:00 p.m. EST on March 5, 2010. The expected notification date is May 5, 2010. To learn more about the Gina M. Finzi Memorial Student Summer Fellowship Program, and download application guidelines, visit '/>"/>
