    Going to ATS Annual Meeting? So Are We!
    PHA staff will be in Toronto, Canada, this coming weekend for the American Thoracic Society Conference to network, educate and raise awareness among medical professionals. This year there are over 45 sessions on PH and PHA will be presenting a poster on PHA at the Patient Advisory Roundtable. If you're attending ATS, come by the PHA booth and check out the resources we have for you. We also encourage you to participate in the fundraiser Gilead will be hosting for PHA where participants will be challenged to answer questions about pulmonary hypertension, and for each correct answer, Gilead will make a donation to PHA. If you are planning to attend ATS, register in advance at www.masteringpah.com to double the donation for each correct answer!
