Join Prof. Bernhard Lämmle as he reviews the history of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP), explains the pathophysiology of this disease, and discusses the development of current treatments.

TOPICS COVERED

  • Prof. Lämmle will give a 25 min talk on TTP, followed by a 15 min discussion and Q&A.
