PA Olympics 2015

Hi, my name is Bridget McHugh and I am the Chairperson for the 2015 Physician Assistant Olympics Fundraiser. Each year seven physician assistant programs from the greater Philadelphia area join together to raise money for a charity of choice. This year we chose the Marfan Foundation (http://www.marfan.org) because of a personal connection in our class.

"My niece, Angelina, passed away on May 20, 2010 from complications due to Marfan Syndrome. She was 2 years old at the time and it deeply affected our family. Despite it being an autosomal dominant disease, Angelina unfortunately had a spontaneous mutation in development that resulted in her contraction of Marfan Syndrome." - Samantha Liddy PA-S at Arcadia University.
