About this talk

Change Together will be presenting a live webinar with leading figures from the patient advocacy community, who will debate how we can drive positive change for patients through improved education and awareness. This will be helpful for all advocates, as we hear and learn from our expert panel how their organizations are bringing about change. The panel and the topics they will be covering are as follows. • Dr. Gwen Nichols, Chief Medical Officer of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society on coordinating the group’s groundbreaking Beat AML Master Trial, which is taking the latest research from the lab to the clinic. • Kathleen Weis, Chief Executive Officer of the Aplastic Anemia and MDS International Foundation, on the changing treatment landscape, which is bringing new hope to patients, and how her group is supporting the AML community. • Representatives from Know AML, the global AML awareness initiative established in 2017 – Gary Nolan from the Know AML secretariat and Brian Tomlinson, patient advocate committee member and Chief Program Officer at CancerCare – explaining how the project started and the role that patient advocates play in it.
