'I AM ALS' panel presentation

"I AM ALS," a panel presentation, will include Dr. Kristin Rankin '00, research assistant professor in epidemiology at the School of Public Health, University of Illinois-Chicago.

The panel will run from 4:30-5:45 p.m. It also will be available via Zoom.

Description: There are some things you can’t learn from a lecture or textbook. You need to hear it from those living in the reality of ALS!

ALS is also known as Lou Gehrig's Disease and one in 300 people will be diagnosed with ALS at some point. Join volunteer advocates from I AM ALS to learn about the disease. Panelists will share their ALS stories, offer best practices for engaging with or caring for someone living with ALS, and answer questions.
