Community Lunch & Learns

Meet the Patients

January 27, 2023 | 12:00 PM CT


People who have received gene or cell therapy treatments, either approved or in clinical trials, have helped further research and have given hope to others who have rare or genetic disorders. This event will highlight their experiences and journeys.

Join us as patients highlight their stories, from navigating the diagnosis process to learning about and receiving investigational treatment options. We'll hear about life after receiving a therapy and patients' outlooks for the future of their disease communities.
