COPD affects millions, and events like this remind us why advancing research, education, and compassionate care is so important. 💙 #LungHealth

A huge shoutout to all the dedicated grants management specialists at the NIH who are working around the clock to push grants out before the Sep 30 deadline. And also to the POs responding to frantic emails.
Not an easy job under the best of circumstances and right now it's the pits.
Thank you!
