Interstitial lung disease (#ILD) is difficult to recognize, which can lead to delayed diagnosis and irreversible scarring of the lungs (#PulmonaryFibrosis).    During #ATS2024, I had the opportunity to listen to an insightful conversation about what it is like to live with ILD, featuring pulmonologist, Dr. Tanzira Zaman, and Brittany, an advocate living with scleroderma-associated ILD.     Their discussion underscored the significance of a multidisciplinary approach. Importantly, they addressed that collaborative care does not have to be formal to be impactful. It can be as simple as a phone call or personal communications between healthcare professional teams, always keeping the patient at the center.    #PatientCentricity #LifeForward #ATSCommunity

Today is Rare Disease Day, a globally recognized campaign dedicated to raising awareness and generating change for the 300 million people worldwide living with a rare disease. Many of our clients are focused on developing treatments to help the lives of patients with a rare disease. Recently, we mapped the patient journey for an ultra-rare disease impacting <5 K patients in the U.S., which affects the body's ability to metabolize cholesterols and leads to progressive neurological problems. A potentially lifesaving therapy already existed, but the disease is significantly underdiagnosed, so our team helped our client devise a strategy to raise disease awareness and find/diagnose new patients. We love that we’re able to support our clients to make such an impact on people’s lives. #rarediseaseday #patientimpact #clearviewhcp #YourFutureisinClearView #lifesciences
