2016 PAH & IPF Symposium

April 13, 2016 By Dr. Jeremy Feldman

Feldman SymposiumWe had another successful Symposium this past weekend. This year, in addition to discussing Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension topics, Dr. Feldman also presented on Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis. We had great attendance by numerous medical professionals involved in the daily care of patients with PAH & IPF.

We’d like to thank all of those who helped make the Symposium possible and those who are involved in the daily care of patients with these diseases. We are living in exciting times with many new treatments available and other progress in the pipeline. But it’s clear that promoting awareness and research will continue to be essential to helping those suffering from these diseases.
