The National Institutes of Health is funding a conference bringing together researchers, doctors, and patients with RUNX1-FPD, a rare blood disorder where people have a high risk of developing blood cancers. The conference aims to help experts share what they know and work together to improve care and research for this condition.
WHY IT MATTERSThis conference creates a dedicated space for RUNX1-FPD patients and families to connect with leading researchers and clinicians studying their specific condition, which is critical since many people with this disorder face a 35-50% lifetime risk of developing blood cancer.
