M. Bilal Abid, Research Fellow in Cancer Therapeutics at MD Anderson Cancer Center, shared a post on LinkedIn:
“Some of us have had less than others. Disparities surround us — rich vs the poor, educated vs not so much, commercially insured vs uninsured — racial and ethnic minorities, disadvantaged and disabled.
In this podcast, we dissect various shapes and forms of disparities deep rooted within our communities, and propose practice and policy-level solutions. This podcast is bound to empower the patients, caregivers, and listeners. Thanks to LLS for continuing to address this much needed issue.
Bonus: I share my background and nurturing as it relates to my passion towards curbing disparities. I also pay tribute to the two giants in the transplant/cell therapy disparity space, Jeff Auletta and Navneet Majhail, whose mentorship and work over the years have taught us all and made a difference for our patients!”
