Currently Funded Research Projects

The CJ Foundation is committed to uncovering the mysteries behind SIDS and SUDC. Since its inception, the CJ Foundation has funded millions of dollars in ground-breaking research conducted by prominent researchers whose goal it is to understand the medical underpinnings of SIDS/SUDC, and to develop ways to eliminate the tragedy of Sudden Infant and Childhood Deaths.
