Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinemia Program Dana-Farber Cancer Institute
 
 

The Waldenstrom’s Macroglobulinemia program at Dana Farber Cancer Institute (DFCI) was founded in 1999 by Dr. Steven Treon with the help of patients, caregivers and DFCI scientists in an effort to advance our understanding of the cause of WM, and to pursue novel therapies. In 2005, the WM program was officially designated as the Bing Center for WM, in honor of Peter S. Bing M.D., former Chair and current Trustee of Stanford University. The Bing Center for WM attracts hundreds of patients each year from all over the world, and is the largest referral center for this disease. The WM clinic is involved in numerous intra- and extramural collaborative studies into the natural history, morbidity, genetic predisposition, and treatment of WM, and has served to extend training in this uncommon disease to medical students, residents, physicians, and allied health care givers. Each year, several internationally recognized WM experts are invited to participate as visiting professors.
