Hello all (: 
Its always great news to hear of great things happening for Sickle Cell! I went to CHOP for all of my childhood and even though it always seemed to me that they didn't care about us (the Hematology floor was seriously outdated compared to others), it's great to see that they are taking some behind the scenes action. Please take the time to read this brief article!

"The symptoms include severe pain, anemia, chest pain and breathing problems, stroke, infections, and many others," said CHOP scientist Gerd Blobel. "So it's a really serious disease." - From the article CHOP researchers make progress on sickle cell disease treatment  by Jessica McDonald
