HealthTree Research: All Publications

HealthTree Cure Hub is a patient data portal where patients can contribute data to accelerate multiple myeloma research. The results of these research projects are then published as abstracts at international conferences and and as manuscripts in medical peer-reviewed journals. To access HealthTree Cure Hub data for multiple myeloma research, go to healthtree.org/research and request a demo.

Pre-Print Publications

The primary aim of disseminating pre-publication research findings is to bring benefits to patients actively engaged in HealthTree Cure Hub. We intend to recognize and appreciate their valuable contributions and participation by granting them early access to potentially valuable information. However, it's important to be aware that the data, interpretations, and final conclusions are subject to change as the research projects expand in sample size and undergo the peer-reviewed publication process.
