Brady Barrows has announced that the RRDi has published the Journal of the Rosacea Research & Development Institute: Volume 1 Number 1, 2010.

The journal has been produced by volunteer rosacea sufferers and consists of `articles by dermatologists, physicians, naturopaths, researchers and patients’.

This first edition is available for $15 from amazon.com and iUniverse. The purchase price is used to further the journal’s publication and lead to some novel rosacea research – although one can imagine that many thousands will need be sold to be able to fund research.
