Thanks to generous donors, The LAM Foundation is again able to offer the LAM Family Network (LFN) Travel Grant. The LFN Travel Grant provides financial assistance to individuals with LAM for the specific purpose of assisting with travel expenses related to attending LAMposium. Recipients will be responsible for paying the regular conference registration fee of $75 per person.  LAM patients may receive this grant for up to three years in a row.

The LAM Foundation has funding available to support travel expenses (hotel, airfare, and/or mileage) for first-time attendees to the International LAM Research Conference & LAMposium.

These funds are specifically designated for patients attending the conference for the first time and can also support one additional person accompanying them. We hope to welcome as many newly diagnosed and first-time attendees as possible.

Patients and a support person will be responsible for paying the regular conference registration fee of $75 per person.

LAM Clinic Directors in attendance at the conference are invited to attend the LAM Clinic Director Congress, chaired by Clinical Advisory Board Co-Chairs Robert Kotloff, MD and Matthew Koslow, MD, on Friday, September 26, at the 2025 International LAM Research Conference & LAMposium. LAM Clinic Directors will meet for dinner to discuss interesting case presentations along with strategies for turning such clinical work into meaningful collaboration and scholarship.  In addition, there will be a Saturday luncheon meeting, which will be a more informal time to connect and discuss topics relevant to running a LAM clinic.
