Thank you, Ted. Good morning, everyone. It is my pleasure to welcome everyone to Corvus Pharmaceuticals' second quarter of 2020 earnings conference call. Our team has had a very busy second quarter. We are on track for what we believe could be a transformative year with multiple anticipated catalysts in the coming months. First, we look forward to top-line data from our recently concluded Phase III systemic sclerosis study this summer Next, these results will be followed by our recently concluded cystic fibrosis Phase IIb study results in the third quarter. With these critical data readouts now closer than ever, we are focusing more and more on preparing the groundwork for NDA submission and then commercialization following potential FDA approval. At this time, our finances are stronger than ever, having just announced that we've raised additional capital of up to $121 million from a combination of our ATM strategy and a debt financing deal from K2 Health Ventures. This significant capital investment ahead of data gives us the ability to have strategic flexibility following data without the pressure of a financing overhead. We are also very pleased to have Dr. George Golomboski Join us as a new board member on our board of directors. George's experience growing companies and advancing innovation will be a significant asset to Corbis as we transition from an R&D only organization to a commercial stage company with a deep pipeline of novel drug candidates targeting the endocannabinoid system. I will now turn the call over to our Chief Medical Officer and Head of Research, Dr. Barbara White, to provide us with an update on our clinical and research programs, to be followed by comments from Craig Million, our Chief Commercial Officer. Thank you, Barbara.
