Yesterday, we hosted our first-ever patient day and invited 20 #HCM patients along with care partners and patient advocacy leaders for a day filled with activities, discussions, connection, and purpose. We named the event Polaris, which is the astronomical name for the North Star, symbolic of our core value: Patients are our North Star. At Polaris, we held numerous activities ranging from patients sharing their stories with employees to breakout sessions focused on key topics to patient advocacy organization leaders providing perspectives and opportunities to support their missions. Polaris affirmed our commitment to our mission and the importance of understanding the patient journey and connecting with the community.
