Herb and Karen Lotman, who have dedicated themselves to ending this debilitating disease for future generations through scientific research, are also dedicated “to easing life’s journey for those who have the disease by providing greater knowledge, support, encouragement, and help,” said Dr. Brucker.

The operational and administrative costs of the MVRF SupportSight are fully funded by the Karen and Herbert Lotman Foundation, allowing any and all funds raised by the organization to go to research and public education.
