The heart and soul of the Amyloidosis Speakers Bureau are our patient educators. They share their authentic journey of battling amyloidosis, from symptoms to diagnosis, treatment, and life today. Their stories provide an impactful education to medical students and residents, raising awareness of this disease. As a result, these future physicians will be better prepared to suspect amyloidosis, leading to earlier diagnosis, treatment and ultimately improving patient lives.

Closing the Medical Education Gap
Lack of awareness, a gap in medical education, is among the most critical and urgent challenges facing the amyloidosis community today. Raising awareness to accelerate diagnosis, coupled with available FDA-approved treatments, leads to a significant improvement in patient lives. The Amyloidosis Speakers Bureau (ASB) brings the patient voice to medical education, complementing traditional didactic and clinical studies. Together, this narrows the education gap and results in a more robust and durable education of medical trainees, thereby accelerating diagnosis and improving patient lives.
