The goal of this year's campaign is to raise awareness of the need to accelerate the fight against viral hepatitis and the value of testing, immunization, and treatment for people who are infected. Through the campaign, those impacted by viral hepatitis will have a greater voice in demanding quick action to eradicate stigma and discrimination. 

Don't wait to get tested. 

Mothers-to-be cannot wait for the hepatitis screening 

Babies cannot wait for their first hepatitis immunization

People who are unaware they have viral hepatitis cannot wait for testing and treatment. 

People with hepatitis can't wait for social stigma to disappear. 

We all can't wait to take action against viral hepatitis because so many people are dying from hepatitis-related ailments.

NORTH AMERICAN CYSTIC FIBROSIS CONFERENCE (NACFC) 2024

North American Cystic Fibrosis Conference (NACFC) 2024 Day 2 Yet another exciting day at NACFC! I started with an interactive session on some research procedures, which I found helpful for my recruiting work and the data's impact on the population. I learned a lot from the CFTR genetics session, which aligns with one of my research group's projects, and the plenary session on The Journey to Understand and Advance Research in CFRD. I wrapped up the day by networking with colleagues at Johns Hopkins Cystic Fibrosis Center  #nacfc #nacfc2024 #cf #cysticfibrosis

NORTH AMERICAN CYSTIC FIBROSIS CONFERENCE (NACFC) 2024

North American Cystic Fibrosis Conference (NACFC) 2024 Day 3 The past few days at The 38th Annual North American Cystic Fibrosis Conference (NACFC) have been inspiring. I've gained a deeper understanding of CF, CF care, cutting-edge research, and, most importantly, the lived experiences of people living with cystic fibrosis and their families. I am leaving this session with more inspiration to serve people living with CF with my work. Thank you to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation for this invaluable opportunity to learn, connect, and be more inspired. #nacfc #nacfc2024 #cf #cysticfibrosis
