Thalassemia Research and Care: 2012 Update
Dear patients, families, friends, and providers:
Along with patient care, medical research is a primary focus at the Comprehensive
Thalassemia Center at Children’s Hospital & Research Center Oakland (CHRCO).
This special edition of the Perspectives newsletter focuses on research studies
being conducted for thalassemia. This is the fourth Research and Care Update, and
we hope that this issue will be a useful tool in keeping patients, families and the
extended medical community abreast of current research, as well as in educating the
community on thalassemia itself.
Patients—-all of the studies mentioned here are optional. If you are interested in
participating in a study or have questions, please talk to your medical care provider.
Please click here or in the left menu to download a PDF file of all the studies, or here for the online list.
