  2. To accelerate the pace of promising PLGA scientific research by acting as a catalyst for individuals and corporations to initiate fundraising projects, which will benefit all PLGA designated research studies. 

  3. To identify a clear direction for PLGA research and create opportunities for talented researchers and clinicians to apply for grant funding for start up, AS WELL, as follow through project monies.
