Happy #UVAwarenessMonth! It’s that time of year for BBQs, swimming, sprinkler running, and beaching. But fun in the sun can come with a cost if you aren’t careful. UV rays are the root cause of most skin cancers, so it’s important that we #PracticeSafeSun to avoid increased risk of cancer. Check out some common sunscreen mistakes, and read more from the American Academy of Dermatology: https://lnkd.in/eczHxHyk

Happy #WorldVitiligoDay! Vitiligo is a condition that causes loss of skin color in patches. It occurs in about 1-2% of the global population, making it a rare disease. Today, we take a moment to celebrate diversity, raise awareness, and empower individuals living with vitiligo. While many people living with vitiligo have embraced their uniqueness, there is some incredible research being done to provide more treatment options for those seeking it. MMG is proud to have played a role in the advancement of vitiligo research through our recruitment support. If you're also part of the effort to provide more treatment options and need our help with recruitment support, we'd love to learn more. Reach out to our strategists: mmgct.com

Did you know that sickle cell disease is the most common genetic blood disorder? Yet, the CDC has noted that people with sickle cell disease have less access to comprehensive team care than people with other genetic blood disorders. There is also no single best treatment for people with the disease, as current treatment options are different for each person. Today, on #WorldSickleCellDay, we aim to Shine the Light on Sickle Cell Disease and raise awareness and education to help increase access for universal care for the diverse groups of people living with this disease. Learn more about World Sickle Cell Day and what you can do to support and raise awareness: https://lnkd.in/g_nXjnu
