Quelle joie de voir le message d'int\u00e9r\u00eat public (PSA) de la Progeria Research Foundation diffus\u00e9 sur Astrovision \u00e0 Times Square \u00e0 New York deux fois par heure, toutes les heures pendant le mois de novembre ! Et le moment est \u00e9galement id\u00e9al, car Times Square attire d'\u00e9normes foules pour faire leurs achats de fin d'ann\u00e9e en novembre.<\/p>\n
La notori\u00e9t\u00e9 du travail de PRF continue de cro\u00eetre gr\u00e2ce au soutien de l'Ad Council, une organisation tr\u00e8s respect\u00e9e dont l'approbation est consid\u00e9r\u00e9e comme le \u00ab sceau d'approbation \u00bb des campagnes d'annonces d'int\u00e9r\u00eat public. Il s'agit d'une autre occasion fantastique de faire conna\u00eetre davantage le PRF, qui sera pr\u00e9sent\u00e9 dans le bulletin d'annonces d'int\u00e9r\u00eat public de novembre\/d\u00e9cembre de l'Ad Council, distribu\u00e9 aux directeurs d'annonces d'int\u00e9r\u00eat public dans 18 000 m\u00e9dias \u00e0 travers le pays.<\/p>\n
Un grand merci \u00e0 Communications scientifiques sur le spectre<\/strong> pour leurs efforts continus et fructueux visant \u00e0 sensibiliser \u00e0 la Progeria et au travail important de la Progeria Research Foundation.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”3.22″][et_pb_row _builder_version=”3.25″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.6.5″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat”] What a thrill to have The Progeria Research Foundation\u2019s Public Service Announcement (PSA) air on the Astrovision in New York City\u2019s Times Square twice an hour, every hour during the month of November!
