Research is being done on many things found on/in coral reefs. Not neccessarilly just to cure specific diseases but often to help in medicine in general.

C. The effects of coral reef destruction are: 1. Coral reefs protect the land from storm and tidal surges, so when they are all destroyed frequent costal flooding occurs 2. Coral reefs are probable sources of medicines to cure the diseases that currently run rampant across the earth. Chemicals found in reefs have been used to treat ulcers, heart disease, leukemia and more. 3. Coral reefs absorb carbon dioxide and use it to form their shells if they are no more coral reefs then there would be more carbon dioxide in the ocean and our atmosphere.
