Jennifer
Haythornthwaite, Ph.D., Associate Professor, Johns Hopkins
University. Dr. Haythornthwaite received a Scleroderma
Foundation grant for $49,558 in 2000, to study "Quality
of Life in Scleroderma." Dr. Haythornthwaite comments,
"the Scleroderma Foundation's support has been
critical in helping us conduct a longitudinal study
of adjustment to scleroderma, focusing on pain, depression,
and disfigurement. We are confident this information
will provide an important direction for improving the
comprehensive care of individuals with scleroderma."
