Episode 51- Talking JAKs, Trials, and Dermatology with Dr. Leila!"Hair patients have always been a hard sync for clinicians because of the fact we don't have treatment, we don't have answers... I felt that these were a group of patients that were quite underserved and I wanted to look after those patients."Tommy & Frank are pleased to welcome Dr. Leila Asfour to Alopecia Connection! She's the first dermatologist on the show, and is running the JAK inhibitor trial that Tommy is participating in!Dr. Asfour has studied and worked in dermatology all over the world, but has settled in London. Her interest in dermatology and hair in particular was sparked by her experiences with her father and cancer treatment related hair loss. She observed the impact that hair loss had on him and their family as a whole, and decided to try to make a difference for others.For more information:Alopecia Support: Alopecia UKNational Alopecia Areata Foundation (US)Trial Information:Alopecia UK Clinical Trial ResearchUK Clinical Research PortalUS Clinical Trial PortalSend us Fan MailConnection is everything!Remember to rate, review, subscribe and share!Alopecia Connection Linktree Alopecia Connection Website*Discussions on Alopecia Connection are from the personal perspectives and experiences of its host and guests, and should be considered that.
