In addition to the TS Alliance Research Grants Program, the TS Alliance administers the TS Alliance Rothberg Courage Award in Research, which was established by members of the Rothberg family to serve as a catalyst for innovative research to find treatments and a cure for TSC. The Rothberg Courage Award in Research recognizes outstanding scientific merit applied directly to TSC and provides important funding to increase the TS Alliance's capacity to accelerate research.
