Today's Medicine CPC is now available on the Department of Medicine YouTube channel. You will also be able to view our channel free of ads.

We are happy to share that we are extending the opportunity to earn CME credit for individuals who are unable to attend Medicine CPC. We will now offer that CPC presentations will be viewable via our Department of Medicine YouTube Channel up to 3 days following the presentation. ⁠

Viewers will be able to watch Medicine CPC recordings until Tuesday (November 18th) at 11:59 pm. Viewers will be able to scan the QR code at the end of the video to earn CME credits. While we would hope to see everyone attend these events in person, we realize that often that is not possible and hope this new opportunity to watch and earn credit will be a valuable solution.⁠

Please help welcome Gulia Petrone, MD, Assistant Professor of Medicine, WashU Medicine Division of Oncology.

Dr. Petrone’s clinical interest is on acute and chronic leukemias, myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), clonal cytopenia of undetermined significance (CCUS), and stem cell transplant.

Her research focuses on understanding the mechanisms that drive progression from CCUS to overt myeloid neoplasms and on developing strategies to reduce this risk through early intervention in high-risk patients. She is committed to improving outcomes for individuals with CCUS and hematologic malignancies by leading clinical trials that explore novel therapies.
