The National Psoriasis Foundation (NPF) is the leading organization dedicated to improving the lives of individuals with psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. With a focus on research, NPF is committed to finding better treatments and a cure for these chronic conditions. One of the key initiatives of NPF is their research program, which aims to generate groundbreaking research in psoriatic disease.

This includes identifying tools to extend remission periods, developing a diagnostic test for psoriatic arthritis, and understanding the onset of psoriatic disease and its relationship to comorbid conditions. As the largest nonprofit funder of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis research in the world, NPF invests over $4 million annually in grants and fellowships. They offer various funding opportunities, including training grants and traditional grants, to support researchers at all stages of their careers.

NPF also plays an active role in publishing research, with their contributions appearing in the Journal of Psoriasis and Psoriatic Arthritis®. Additionally, they engage with the psoriatic disease community through their Citizen Pscientist project and conduct an annual survey to better understand the needs of those affected by psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis.
