What is ERIC and Why Should We Care?

Dr. Stamatopolous is one of its directors and in these short videos he talks about ERIC in general and its first big meeting. He then discusses his research on the “cognitive dissonance” we all know so well when we are diagnosed with an incurable cancer and then told we need no treatment. Next he explains the importance of IgVH testing and how ERIC and the CLL Society are working in different ways to improve patient care.

Finally, we have posted the two introductory animations produced by ERIC that explain the elements of blood and the rudiments of CLL.

Links to all of these are available on our home page: cllsociety.org

Stay strong.

We are all this together

Brian
