 and advance translational and clinical research that will ultimately lead 
 to a cure for lupus. The Lupus Research Alliance Global Team Science Award
 s will support interdisciplinary\, collaborative\, and highly synergistic 
 projects that push the boundaries of innovation and bridge research and cl
 inical efforts in lupus. The successful Teams will focus on unraveling hum
 an lupus heterogeneity by applying cutting-edge technologies to address cr
 itical questions that could bring about breakthroughs in lupus care\, rese
