Research Survey
The Autoimmune Research Network (ARNet) is an autoimmune disease patient registry. ARNet empowers patients by facilitating their participation in research on autoimmune disease.
Clinical Trials
Through clinical trials, patients can access cutting-edge treatment and help move the needle in ushering new diagnostics, preventative tools, and therapies to market — all bringing us closer to a world without autoimmune disease.
Published Autoimmune Research
Research allows scientists to gain a better understanding of autoimmune diseases, enabling them to develop new and effective methods of detection, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention.
Cell Therapy for Autoimmune Disease Summit
The Autoimmune Association is proud to partner with the 2nd Cell Therapy for Autoimmune Disease Summit to explore pre-clinical, translational, and clinical advancements encompassing all cell-based therapies for autoimmune disease, including CAR-T, Treg, and MSC. December 2-4, 2024, Philadelphia, PA
