OT RESEARCH NEWS 2015 - Congratulations!
A 1-year NORD grant of $30,000 for a clinical research study related to the diagnosis and/or treatment of Primary Orthostatic Tremor has been awarded!
The funding for this grant has come from donations by the Orthostatic Tremor community and a $10,000 grant from Lundbeck, a Danish pharmaceutical company. Lundeck created a special grant for the "Raise Your Hand" Rare Disease Day Fundraising campaign.
We are fortunate that this project was the recipient of the Lundbeck grant. The remaining balance of the OT fund can be applied to future research when the fund reaches its next goal.
