The pets mobilizing our Save Da Hoomans (SDH) campaign caught some national attention! SDH was recognized at the NIH Clinical and Translational Science Awards (CTSA) Program meeting as one of the eight “Best of” communications initiatives across the more than 55 CTSA institutions across the country.

SDH is a collaboration between ITM institutions, Northwestern, and the University of Illinois at Chicago, where pets are mobilizing to save their humans from COVID-19, cancer, and more by telling people to sign up for health research information and join studies.

Sara Serritella, Director of ITM Communications and SDH, presented the campaign at the national meeting the week of April 12.
