The CJD Foundation organizes Grand Round presentations, Infection Control Seminars, and Funeral Director and Embalmer Education. We offer this opportunity at your facility or remotely at no charge to you. We provide the speaker and cover travel costs if necessary. We are a non-profit organization and part of our mission is to provide education and support to families and medical professionals caring for suspected CJD patients.
