R+D

The number of respiratory patients is increasing every day due, in part, to people's poor lung health habits, and the effects of weather and pollution. Research is the most effective way to stop its growth, and for this reason, it is necessary to continue investing in R&D to increase prevention and improve treatments.

At the Lovexair Foundation we want to collaborate with this purpose, which is why we promote several actions:
Own projects
