DescriptionGrantsExpenses
James R. and Jesse V. Scott Fund for Shingles ResearchThis fund supports the Shingles Research conducted by Dr. Oxman and his team. Dr. Oxman has led the design and implementation of a VA Cooperative Study aimed at developing a vaccine to prevent shingles, a painful viral condition affecting more than a million people in the US each year, including many veterans. As a direct result of his large scale project, the Food and Drug Administration licensed the vaccine and the Center for Disease Control and Prevention recommended that all adults 60 and over be vacinated against shingles. These VRC held funds are intended to build upon this ground breaking research and to identify genetic differences in patients. Dr. Oxman and his team are trying to learn more about how genes may influence how well the vaccine works, and if genetic differences have something to do with the severity of a patient's case of shingles. This vitally important follow up work is currently unfunded and will only move forward because of this VRC funding.$123,784$123,784
