We address every phase in the vitiligo drug discovery process, from basic research all the way to the clinic, in order for new treatments to reach patients. At the Vitiligo Research Foundation, we have only one incentive: to bring a vitiligo treatment to market for nearly a 100 million people worldwide who are affected by this devastating condition.
