What is the Vasculitis Patient-Powered Research Network (V-PPRN)?

The Vasculitis Patient-Powered Research Network (V-PPRN) is an extension of the VCRC Contact Registry. When you join the V-PPRN you will automatically be enrolled in the VCRC Contact Registry. The V-PPRN collects more in-depth information for vasculitis research on our secure patient portal.

The V-PPRN seeks to conduct research in vasculitis in a new way by working directly with patients with vasculitis:
