In Episode 5 of Full Throttle, Powered by Race for RP, Host Greg Creamer goes one-on-one with MD Anderson Cancer Center researcher and hematopathologist, Dr. Rashmi Kanagal-Shamanna, to discuss a fascinating new Relapsing Polychondritis Foundation funded research study she’s leading in partnership with Dr. David Beck of NYU Grossman School of Medicine.
The study is especially exciting because it’s searching for a genetic link between autoimmune diseases and bone marrow cancers. Given the recent findings of common genetic variants in VEXAS patients, the research supported by the RP Foundation continues to bring science one step closer to the discovery of a biomarker for RP.
