Congrats to my @nih_nhlbi colleagues @DrDavidJYoung @BrynnDuncan @cedunbar80 on publication of their trial using EPAG in #DBA in @BrJHaem! Unfortunately suboptimal response seen, likely driven by necessary dose reductions due to thrombocytosis. https://t.co/f9Cjln5iIJ #IBMFS

Inspiring talk by the inimitable Dr Blanche Alter who trained under the very Louis Diamond (Scwachan Diamond and Diamond Blackfan) and has had patients at the centre of her research into inherited bone marrow failure syndromes @DBA_UK @CharitySdsuk.

[Team Telomere @TeamTelomereInc]

1/3It’s hard to put into words the impact of Dr. Blanche Alter’s work. Today she received the Walter H Coulter Lifetime Achievement Award.

If you look out for kind running mates at #ASH23 5(4.2)K, make sure to apply for ASH/EHA #TRTH @AlexandraBVelo1 @myllymaki_mikko
As a caveat, you might also get exposed to stellar mentoring by inspiring leaders in hematology.

Does the evolutionary history of a cancer predict outcome? In our pre-print, we introduce a new method to measure a cancer’s past using bulk methylation data. In chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL), these inferred histories are highly prognostic! (1/9)
