The Myositis Association recognizes that the myositis patient’s best hope for a cure lies in research. The goal of The Myositis Association’s Research Grant Program is to develop a better understanding of myositis diseases, create better treatments, and, ultimately, find a cure for myositis. TMA began funding research in 2002, and has continued to fund promising myositis research ever since.

Stay tuned for TMA’s 2026 requests for proposals in the Spring. To receive notifications about future funding announcements, please join TMA as a healthcare provider.
