"Not only does it strengthen the ATS program of research awards, but it also helps to assure that the award will be granted on the basis of scientific merit, thus increasing the likelihood that it will advance the field as well as a promising young investigator's career."

Justin Callahan, president, US Operations of Fisher & Paykel Healthcare said, "We are pleased to support the ATS Foundation with this research grant. Fisher & Paykel Healthcare strives to improve patient care and outcomes through inspired and world-leading healthcare solutions and we welcome this opportunity to provide support to furthering clinical research in COPD.
