FSR is pleased to be a resource for patients,
professionals and consumers looking for additional information on
sarcoidosis and would be happy to collaborate with the media on in-depth
articles and news reports.
Included in this section are press releases and articles
about the Foundation which have appeared in popular publications. A review of
sarcoidosis studies and related articles in scientific
publications can be found under the heading 'Research
News'. FSR has recently produced a Public Service Announcement to help
raise national awareness of this disease. The PSA features famed
Boston Celtics basketball player Bill Russell and his daughter Karen,
both sarcoidosis patients.
