About us
For more than 125 years, National Jewish Health has been at the forefront of research and medicine. We integrate the latest scientific discoveries with coordinated care for pulmonary, cardiac, immune and related conditions. National Jewish Health physicians and researchers are at the forefront of a new era in health care that embraces a personalized, preventive approach to medicine. We understand that each person is unique, and their variations in diet, environment, personal habits and DNA all influence their individual health. That is why two different people are exposed to certain conditions and only one gets sick and why certain treatments may work for one person and not for another. With a focus on personalized medicine, our researchers are looking at environment-gene interaction and making strides in predicting, preventing, treating and tracking many diseases. This proactive approach to medicine means that if you have a disease, or the probability of getting a disease, it may be detected sooner so that you may live longer, healthier and with a better quality of life. Our research is truly transforming the lives of millions. By using an individual's DNA to predict and prevent disease, to guide the right choice of therapy to limit side effects and bring higher success rates for treatments and to be able to track the effects of these therapies, National Jewish Health is working to improve health care for the future.

Join Dr. Jennifer Taylor-Cousar, Dr. Jered Eddy, and Sara Dederman Brayshaw to learn why diagnoses of cystic fibrosis continue to be missed both in infancy and later into adolescence and adulthood and how health professionals can improve their ability to spot CF in patients to improve care. Missed or delayed diagnoses of CF and CFTR-related disorders can have important implications for disease progression and health outcomes. Participants in this program will increase their awareness about missed diagnoses of CF, examine factors that lead to missed diagnoses including race, rare mutations and pancreatic sufficiency, and analyze options for patient testing and treatment of suspected CF and CFTR-related disorders. 1.0 CME/CNE earned for completing this free course https://brnw.ch/21wOqfU

The discovery of the mechanisms of type 2 (T2) inflammation in #asthma gave rise to #biologic therapies that have dramatically expanded treatment options for patients with moderate-to-severe eosinophilic or allergic asthma. Newly approved and emerging therapies that target the epithelial alarmins represent an important opportunity to improve outcomes for patients with a broad range of asthma phenotypes. In this activity, Drs. Rohit Katial, Eileen Wang and Michael Wechsler, provide insights into the new paradigm of treatments and how to manage the complexity of severe asthma treatment. This program will focus on the role of epithelial alarmins in the inflammatory cascade of asthma, and connecting clinical characteristics to patients’ biomarkers for treatment. Topics include: current challenges in severe asthma management; the pathophysiology of severe asthma; targets for current and emerging treatments; and selecting treatments based on patient phenotypes. 1.0 CME earned for completing this free course https://bit.ly/NJHAsthma23
