Colleague Conversations: A Look at Germline Predisposition to Hematologic Malignancies
Colleague Conversations offers insights into hematology/oncology from two different perspectives: a seasoned hematologist/oncologist and a clinician earlier in their career. Oncology Times reporter Catlin Nalley sat down with Lucy A. Godley, MD, PhD, and Gina Keiffer, MD, to discuss germline predisposition to hematologic malignancies. They delve into our growing understanding of this area, including current and future research endeavors, and examine how germline predisposition intersects with disparities in cancer care. Godley is the Hospira Foundation Professor of Medicine and Human Genetics at The University of Chicago Medicine, and Keiffer is board certified in Internal Medicine, Hematology, and Oncology at Jefferson Health in New Jersey.
