Formerly Arthritis and Rheumatism Council, Arthritis Research UK is the leading funder of research into the cause, treatment and cure of arthritis.

This charity is a member of the AMRC.

The charity supports embryonic stem cell research, and recently awarded a grant to researchers who aim "to take [their] fundamental laboratory work on embryonic stem cells a step further, testing the ability of chondrocytes derived from embryonic stem cells to form cartilage when implanted into animals."
