I applaud colleagues like Lauren Merz and Maureen Achebe to shine a light on ways for hematologists to lead systemic change. Let’s keep the dialogue going!

Absolutely awesome engagement. Thanks to ash21 for creating a forum for safe and meaningful exchanges of ideas. A privilege to moderate with Pat McGann, MD to hear from thoughtful and brave colleagues.

Extraordinary privilege to present this data of truly transformational research in thalassemia. Nearly 90% transfusion independence in phase 3 studies that is durable with normal or near normal Hb and improved iron status.

Incredible story in ⁦The New York Times⁩ capturing the devastation of #sicklecell in Nigeria. Deep admiration for Drs DeBaun and ⁦⁦Oby Nnodu⁩ for longstanding efforts. Proud of ⁦ASH⁩ for supporting SCD newborn screening thru CONSA nytimes.com/2021/12/21/hea…
