Among the most important functions of TMA is working with the dedicated doctors, nurses, researchers, therapists and social workers who care for patients that have inflammatory myopathies. We hope you will visit this site often and that you will find it helpful.

As a professional partner of TMA, you'll receive TMA’s electronic newsletter, Myositis Monitor, containing conference reports, research news, notices of the availability of new research grants and fellowship funding, and links to current published research.

We invite you to let us know about your recent myositis research and to enlist our help in recruiting patients for studies you are conducting.

Finally, we ask you to inform your patients about TMA, and to let them know about our annual patient conference, our Keep In Touch (KIT) patient support groups, ongoing research, and the patient newsletter and other educational materials.
