We established the “Roots & Wings” program to provide travel (the “Wings) and related support (the “Roots”) to families whose child has been identified with a potentially life-threatening Primary Immunodeficiency that requires lifesaving medical care far away from home.
These patients often require transportation to specialized centers where they might reside while undergoing treatment. We would like to make life easier, reduced their burden, and enable as many children as possible to have a second chance at life.
There is no fee of any kind. If you would like to apply to “Roots & Wings,” please ask your physician to fill out the application below and email it to us at info@jmfworld.org:
We are proud to award travel grants to encourage continued education for physicians and nurses at global meetings and conferences that focus on Primary Immunodeficiency. Grantees are awarded support for meeting registration, virtual or in-person attendance, and housing for the duration of the conference. WIN grants have been awarded to physicians and nurses in over 44 countries.
The WinMD travel grant provides funding to medical students, fellows, researchers, and physicians to support travel to global conferences that highlight Primary Immunodeficiency. It’s our hope that these grants enhance physician education, promote awareness, and encourage a lively dialogue with colleagues in the field.
The WinRN travel grant provides funding to nurses to support travel to global conferences that highlight Primary Immunodeficiency. It’s our hope that these grants enhance nurse education, promote awareness, and encourage a lively dialogue with colleagues in the field.
Medical conferences provide valuable information and experiences to physicians, patients, and healthcare professions in the field of Immunology. Below is a listing of upcoming global conferences that highlight the work of top experts in the fields of Immunology and Primary Immunodeficiency.
