March 26th - What Does the Latest Lymphoma News Mean to You?

Hear the Replay!

What's new in lymphoma research and treatment?  What came out of the latest meeting of the American Society of Hematology?  What does this mean for you and your treatment options? Are there new drug combinations, and is there a role for stem cell transplant?  Hear from renowned expert, Dr. James Armitage, from the University of Nebraska Medical Center as he joins Andrew to discuss this all too important topic.

Remember, our discussions are meant to help give you expert perspective and it would be unwise and unfair to you to try to practice medicine over the Web. Please recognize that for specific medical advice you should consult with your own doctor.

With that caveat, you are welcome to submit a question below to be answered during the live program. And please, tell others about our live programs and the replays and transcripts that are posted soon after the live broadcasts. There is nothing like this anywhere else.

As always, we welcome your comments and suggestions.
