Health Equity in Clinical Trials is the precursor to ensuring that all Patients can have access to therapies and cures that will work for them.

When Maria Kefalas’s daughter Calliope was diagnosed with a degenerative\, incurable genetic disease\, the last thing Maria expected to discover in herself was a superpower. This superpower of grief manifested in the realization that in order for Maria and her family to save themselves\, they would need to find a way to save others. So\, they set out to raise money so that they\, in their son PJ’s words\, could “find a cure for Cal’s disease.”\n\n\n\n12:00 p.m. – 1:00 p.m.\n\nNetworking Lunch\n\n\n\n\nA must attend program for anyone who advocates on behalf of Patients!
