Support us

We are an independent charity for medical research and the people who make it happen.

We rely on external funding and donations and every year we must raise funds to support our work.

“My research was finally showing promising data for a potential way to improve the eyesight of children with albinism when family pressures and a series of grant rejections nearly led me to leave research for a more financially secure job as a consultant. The Academy's mentoring and support gave me the confidence and skills that eventually led to a fellowship. Every day in the laboratory I am thankful for this.” ~ Dr Helena Lee, doctor & scientist
