The CYSTINOSIS CASE COMPETITION
("TRIPLE C EVENT")

Overview

After hearing from various Cystinosis survivors, AdvoSci Health had decided to launch a case competition that would promote awareness on Cystinosis from an educational perspective. Through our case competition, participants would build an engaging graphic that communicates their knowledge of Cystinosis to non-academic audiences.
