Pediatric Grand Rounds (RECORDING) Predicting Patient Outcomes from Single Cells in Childhood Cancer

This presentation is a recording of a Stanford Pediatric Grand Rounds Session.  World-renowned experts will present the latest research, practice guidelines, and treatment protocols to advance best practices in the care of pediatric patients. These online recordings will provide pediatricians and family physicians with up-to-date clinical information on a wide range of clinical issues encountered in daily pediatric practice. 

Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common cancer of childhood and one of the deadliest despite impressive improvements in survival. The Davis lab uses single-cell, high-dimensional analysis to identify the most important cells, those that are resistant to standard and cutting-edge therapies, leading to relapse. By identifying and understanding these treatment resistant cells can we work to prevent relapse and cure more children and young adults with ALL.

1. Recognize current clinical outcomes and challenges in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
2. Recognize developmental structure of B cell ALL.
3. Describe impact of single-cell approaches to identify clinically relevant cell populations in ALL.

In support of improving patient care, Stanford Medicine is jointly accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME), the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE), and the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC), to provide continuing education for the healthcare team.
