Thalassemia Research and Care at UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital Oakland
Dear patients, families, friends, and providers:
Along with patient care, medical research is a primary focus at the Comprehensive
Thalassemia Center at UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital Oakland. Each year we publish a
special edition of the Perspectives newsletter which focuses on research studies
being conducted for thalassemia. We hope this is 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.
