[HIATUS] TESTING OUR PATIENTS: "Dude, Where's My Test?" (Episode One)
from Out of Patients with Matthew Zachary
Testing Our Patients is a limited discussion series about how the sausage is made when bringing life-saving diagnostic tests and breakthrough medicines to cancer patients in desperate need of hope. In this episode, we welcome Allison Silverman, CEO of Stupid Cancer, and Lizette Figueroa, Senior Director of Education & Support at The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, to discuss their work as patient advocates to get MRD testing the patients who need most. Diverse schools of thought often collide between the risk/reward of rushing approvals too soon vs. the patient advocates who decry, "What's taking so long? We just want to live."See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
