Research

PAPAA supports well run medical research into psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis and does this by providing research grants, promoting research programmes, publicising results of research and by helping to recruit into research projects and trials. PAPAA is committed to supporting the dissemination of funded projects as wide and free to access as possible. This will be via our own publications both in-print and online. We will publish and encourage researchers to report results, regardless of whether they reach the initial expected outcomes, as we believe that any result from publicly funded research provides valuable additions to the furtherance of scientific knowledge and public benefit.

What we'll fund

Small grants for psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis research

In the current economic climate it is more difficult than ever for researchers to secure the necessary financial support.  

As a charity we wish to support research into all aspects of psoriasis whenever possible, though of necessity the amounts we are able to commit are relatively small.  

We are registered with the National Institute of Health Research (NIHR) as a partner organisation, which allows us to be added to the UK Clinical Research Network portfolio when we support any research that qualifies.

We will consider funding applications for small, relatively low cost (<£10k) research projects in the following areas: 

  • Short term observational studies
  • Funding of feasibility and pilot studies
  • Systematic Reviews
  • Small epidemiological surveys
  • Psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis in children

The trustees of the charity will consider other areas of research, provided there is likely to be a tangible benefit for patients affected by psoriasis and/or psoriatic arthritis.
