Event Description

Multiple myeloma is a rare disease, complicated by the individuality and complicated genetics of the disease itself. It's easy to get confused when sifting through translocations, deletions, and risk assessment. Join us to get a better understanding of not only the vocabulary, but your own risk assessment based on your FISH or other genetic test results. You won't want to miss this!
