Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a company committed to the AFib community, sponsors Team AFib and our initiatives.

Experience AFib InSight™
Team AFib would like to invite you to join us on our national tour as we work together to raise awareness about AFib and its link to an increased risk for stroke. AFib InSight is an exciting new experience that takes viewers on a 3-D journey through the body to show how AFib can lead to stroke. We’ll be stopping at consumer events across the nation throughout 2011—so make sure to see if we’ll be near you!
