PFF Education Symposium

The PFF Education Symposium provides an important educational opportunity for patients and all who are interested in learning about the latest advances in PF research and patient care. The PFF medical team and other experts in the field will discuss topics including pulmonary rehabilitation, caregiving, oxygen, and other disease management topics. A simulated case discussion will give attendees insight into the diagnostic process for PF. All attendees will be invited to a networking session on Friday afternoon.

The Clinical Trials Innovation (CTI) Series provides an overview and update on the research and development of innovative therapies to improve the lives of those living with pulmonary fibrosis and related conditions. 

Everyone who is interested in learning more about pulmonary fibrosis and its impact on those affected by the disease, especially patients, caregivers, lung transplant recipients, and people who have lost a loved one to PF.
