The Tuberous Sclerosis Alliance (TS Alliance) has been funding research of tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) since 1984. The
TS Alliance Research Grants Program started 14 years later and is now an international consortium composed of researcher from the United States, United Kingdom and The Netherlands.
In addition to the TS Alliance Research Grants Program, the TS Alliance announced the Rothberg Award for Courage in Research. This $100,000 award was established to recognize outstanding scientific research that advances the knowledge toward finding a cure for the many aspects of TSC. Up to four Rothberg Courage Awards may be presented annually. These awards are a complement to the TS Alliance’s research grant awards program. The Rothberg Award for Courage in Research will be presented to scientists identified and selected by an awards review panel or through nominations received by the TS Alliance.
