AAIR CHARITY

AAIR is proud to raise funds for research in the field of asthma, allergy and inflammatory conditions of the lungs at the University of Southampton. Through the Southampton NIHR-funded Respiratory Biomedical Research Centre and NIHR Clinical Research Facility, we have strong links with the University Hospital Southampton for delivery of innovative bench-to-bedside research. The team of experts we support are credited with many achievements and breakthroughs - from helping discover an important asthma gene to pioneering new treatments... The AAIR Charity helps local scientists to leverage such funding by funding pilot projects and pump-priming grants, which help researchers to demonstrate the feasibility and potential of their proposed research work. The Charity also helps to purchase vital pieces equipment and supports the next generation of asthma, allergy and inflammation researchers by funding studentships and bursaries. Since 1991, AAIR has contributed over £6M to these causes.
