Join Our First Fireside Chat of the Year: Reflections from the IgG4ward! PeachJAM & CanJAM
We’re excited to kick off the year with our first Fireside Chat, designed to center patient voices while bringing together expert clinical insight and shared reflection. This interactive session will revisit key moments from the IgG4ward! PeachJAM and CanJAM, continuing the meaningful conversations sparked during both events.
Hosted by Dr. John Stone, the Fireside Chat will feature Dr. Arezou Khosroshahi and Dr. Mollie Carruthers, who will reflect on major themes, patient-driven questions, and real-world implications for care.
What to Expect from This Fireside Chat
This session is intentionally designed as a dynamic, conversational experience rather than a formal presentation.
Using select video clips from the IgG4ward! PeachJAM and CanJAM, the discussion will revisit moments that resonated most with patients, caregivers, and the broader community, using those insights as a foundation for reflection and dialogue.
During the session, panelists will:
Reflect on key themes raised by patients and caregivers at PeachJAM and CanJAM
Share clinical perspectives informed by lived experience
Address patient-focused questions inspired directly by each event
Explore how these conversations translate into real-world care and decision-making
Continuing the Conversation from PeachJAM and CanJAM
This Fireside Chat is an opportunity to pause, reflect, and build on what was shared during PeachJAM and CanJAM. Rather than simply revisiting past events, the discussion is focused on exploring what these insights mean moving forward — and how they can continue to inform care, understanding, and connection.
The Fireside format creates space for open conversation, thoughtful reflection, and deeper engagement with the topics that matter most to our community.

Whether you joined us for the IgG4ward! PeachJAM or CanJAM — or are engaging with the Foundation community for the first time — this session offers an opportunity to stay connected and continue the dialogue.
