Conclusions and Recommendations
TS Alliance-funded researchers have successfully leveraged funding from NIH and DoD for TSC.
The use of different funding mechanisms varies by research area, but significant funds have been invested in Postdoctoral and Junior Investigators across all research areas.
Providing funding for basic, translational, clinical research, clinical trials, and research tool development has served the TSC research community well.
Continued and increased flexibility in funding is needed to support not only young investigators, but also for Junior and Senior Investigators who provide expertise, experience and dedication to TSC research.
