About this listen

Some of our board members traveled to the UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital in Oakland, California. They were one of the first sickle cell clinics in the U.S. and are celebrating their 50th anniversary. 
Clinical trials are an essential part of their mission and provide opportunities for patients to benefit from the latest research. And that’s what we’re talking about today. 
We spoke with doctors Mark Walters and Marsha Treadwell, nurses, social workers, support staff, and transplant patients and donors, including siblings Christelle & Karl Salomon. Karl provided his sister Christelle, who was born with SCD, life changing bone marrow.
