Medical Advisory Panel

Our work is supported and informed by our Medical Advisory Panel -  expert clinicians and scientists who all specialise in the field of lymphoma and related disciplines. They assist in the development of our publications, review our patient information, advise on our services and contribute to our conferences and study days.

We work together to inform and support those affected by lymphoma, to increase awareness and to improve the standard of care through education and research.
