The Progeria Research Foundation's (PRF) mission is to find treatments and the cure for Progeria and its aging-related disorders, including heart disease.

PRF was founded in 1999 in response to the complete lack of resources and research on Progeria, and is the only organization in the world solely dedicated to discovering treatments and the cure for this devastating condition.
