Sickle cell disease can be very discouraging and distressing for both patient and clinician. By sharing our unique insights, expertise, and professional experiences on Global Sickle Cell Forum, we can all increase our understanding of this complex disease and immediately incorporate this knowledge into improved management strategies for our pediatric patients. We also encourage you to tell your colleagues about this important resource.

This site was made available through an educational grant provided by Novartis. Thank you very much for your participation.
