You may be aware that heart disease affects women differently than men, but did you know that ethnicity can create additional risk factors? Join experts at Rush for an informative program that will outline your risk factors based on your ethnicity and explain how you can take charge of your heart health. Breakout sessions include African-American, Asian, Caucasian, Latina and Indian groups.

Because kidney disease is both a cause and result of heart disease, the keynote address by Bill Whittier, MD, will focus on preventing kidney disease and failure by managing risk factors for both, including diabetes and hypertension.

Because space is limited, registration is required.
