Today's most groundbreaking experiments in medicine—gene editing to correct inherited disorders, immunotherapies to cure cancer, molecularly engineered organs for human transplantation—stem from the strides of one visionary: E. Donnall Thomas, M.D. In the last half of the twentieth century, Thomas himself discovered a cure for every marrow-based disease, like leukemia and sickle-cell anemia, forever changing treatment for some of the deadliest illnesses and earning him a Nobel Prize. No one has written his story until now.
Frederick R. Appelbaum, M.D., a member of Thomas's research team, tells the captivating story for the first time in Living Medicine. Appelbaum explains the secrets to Thomas's success, including how he overcame the disbelief of the scientific community. Due to Thomas’s commitment, bone marrow transplantation has now saved over a million lives.
This inspirational story of courage and perseverance is sure to have an impact on anyone who reads it. Order your copy now to discover the incredible medical journey of Dr. E. Donnall Thomas, and how far our medical progress has come and will go. | | Order now | Yours in good health,
