Dr. David Fajgenbaum joins host Dr. Bob Kaiser for a discussion about innovative solutions for accelerating disease research and discovering treatments for those diseases. Fajgenbaum, an immunologist and an assistant professor at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, co-founded the Castleman Disease Collaborative Network while urgently searching for a cure to a disease from which he was dying. They also discuss Fajgenbaum’s memoir, Chasing My Cure: A Doctor’s Race to Turn Hope Into Action (New York: Ballentine Books, 2019).
