At the Halpern Law Firm, we’ve dedicated our practice to helping individuals and families affected by asbestos exposure and mesothelioma. Our mission is not just about fighting for justice in the courtroom, it’s also about staying connected to the latest science, treatment advances, and advocacy efforts that directly impact our clients’ lives.
That’s why attorney Dave Halpern and our team are proud to support and attend iMig, the International Mesothelioma Interest Group conference. It is the premier global event devoted exclusively to mesothelioma, and for us, it represents the perfect intersection of medicine, advocacy, and law.
What Exactly is iMig?
The International Mesothelioma Interest Group (iMig) is a worldwide collaboration of physicians, researchers, patient advocates, and experts focused entirely on mesothelioma. Every few years, iMig hosts a major international conference where leaders from around the globe come together to:
- Share groundbreaking research and clinical trials.
- Explore new diagnostic tools and imaging techniques.
- Discuss innovative treatment options, including surgery, immunotherapy, and targeted drugs.
- Foster international partnerships that accelerate progress against this devastating cancer.
In short, iMig is more than a medical conference, it’s a hub of global collaboration, driving the science of mesothelioma forward.
Why iMig Matters to the Public
Though iMig is primarily attended by medical and scientific professionals, its impact reaches patients, families, and the public in profound ways:
- Faster Access to Treatments – Discoveries unveiled at iMig often spark new clinical trials and therapies that patients can access sooner.
- Higher Standards of Care – By uniting experts from across the world, iMig helps establish best practices, improving how mesothelioma is diagnosed and treated everywhere.
- More Clinical Trial Opportunities – Collaborations formed at iMig expand the number and variety of trials, giving patients more chances to benefit from cutting-edge medicine.
- Awareness & Advocacy – iMig shines a spotlight on asbestos dangers, prevention, and the urgent need for better policies to protect workers and families.
For families living with mesothelioma, what happens at iMig can directly shape the care they receive tomorrow.
