Proud to Represent at CHEST 2025!

The Chicago Asthma Consortium was well-represented at this year’s CHEST Annual Conference, where our President Matt Siemer and Executive Director Rachelle Paul-Brutus, MPH, joined clinicians, researchers, and public health experts from across the country to advance the conversation around asthma care and respiratory health.

We’re energized by the collaboration, the research, and the shared commitment to improving outcomes for individuals living with asthma. Thank you to CHEST for creating a space that fosters learning, connection, and action.

Looking forward to applying these learnings as we continue championing asthma education, advocacy, and community health across our region.
