The American Lung Association's Asthma Clinical Research Centers (ACRC) network is an ALA-sponsored research program seeking to develop large clinical trials that will provide useful information important to the direct care of people who have asthma. The network, with 20 clinical centers and a data coordinating center, is the largest of its kind conducting clinical trials involving large numbers of subjects.

With asthma rates in epidemic proportions the American Lung Association of Florida is proud to be a leader in the nation’s Asthma Clinical Research Centers (ACRCs) network by funding, in part, two centers right here in Florida: Nemours Children’s Clinic in partnership with the University of Florida in Jacksonville and the University of Miami/University of South Florida partnership.
