I was invited to be a guest speaker on the inaugural episode of Better Together: Sharing Our Kidney Stories. It was such an amazing experience. I definitely had a fan girl moment speaking to Dr. Michael Forde.
, that is wonderful! Was there any discussion that surprised or was new to you? - Warmly, Donna (Team Member)
I co-founded a nonprofit for IgA Nephropathy, called IgA Nephropathy Canada Hub. It's the first organization of its kind in Canada! It's a lot of work, but I'm so excited about the possibilities this will bring to patients & clinicians. We launch in November in Montreal.
Amazing!!
I was invited to be the keynote speaker and opener for a research summit.
Incredible
Just last week, I spoke on a panel at the first Health Summit at Advertising Week NY. I explained how even the most well-intentioned messaging can come across as insensitive or hurtful to patients, and how pharma and industry leaders can do better. The audience (mainly pharma and industry marketers) really seemed to take it all in, and hopefully they'll keep our discussion in mind when drafting their next ad copy. 🦋
Wow!!
