“When you are studying about von Hippel-Lindau disease you are not just studying about [the]… disease…you are also now touching other diseases as well where we can use the VHL gene to understand what is happening”. William G. Kaelin Jr., MD 2019 Nobel Prize in Medicine Winner
Once considered only “an obscure medical curiosity”, VHL is becoming one of the most important fields of study for Cancer Research generally. It has already spawned the development of NINE life-saving cancer drugs (in addition to Belzutifan)
Both VHL UK/ Ireland and the VHL Alliance are constantly striving to increase the level of VHL research.

VHL UK/Ireland has funded many research projects so far (see “Research Grants Made” tab below) and we have only just started.
With your help we can help fund more research and find a cure that not only would help VHL patients, but also those who suffer with other cancers.- See our “We’re Fundraising for” tab below
