Hematology Portraits: Prof Kostas Stamatopoulos

Join us for an interview with Prof Kostas Stamatopoulos, as he shares his personal journey as both a medical doctor and a researcher in hematology and understand how these two activities have always been profoundly linked in his drive to deliver impactful solutions for patients - even though years may pass between a discovery and a change for patients in clinical practice. Prof Stamatopoulos describes here his work into stereotypy of B-cell receptor (BCR) immunoglobulin and how this phenomenon explains the existence of the same or highly similar subsets of BCR clones in unrelated patients with CLL. Our guest explains further how this knowledge is leading to the classification of CLL patients into subsets with specific pathologies and might help personalize the treatment. Next to translational research, Prof Stamatopoulos is focusing on patient empowerment. In this podcast, he will explain how he strives to create a more participatory healthcare model, and how he aims to transform education and training for young clinicians and researchers. Host: Isabel Olivera-Martinez, PhD, Medical Writer Guest: Prof Kostas StamatopoulosLearn MoreWhat did you think of this podcast?
