Translational research discoveries have been critical in improving care for people living with sickle cell disease (SCD). In this episode, Dr. Courtney Fitzhugh shares her passion for translational research and how it can directly help individuals living with SCD. Kyle Smith describes how acute chest syndrome impacts his day-to-day activities. Dr. Solomon Ofori-Acquah, an SCD researcher who studies acute chest syndrome, explains to host Dr. Wally Smith how his work goes from the lab bench to the bedside of people living with the disease. Racial disparities are also present in the SCD research space, and a diverse workforce is necessary to eliminate current barriers to research based on discrimination.
