| Nearly every major medical breakthrough over the past 50 years can be attributed to new discoveries that were made possible through meticulous biomedical research. Many diseases and conditions that previously took a heavy toll on patients in terms of both morbidity and mortality are now either treatable or preventable thanks in large part to painstaking research that expanded the frontiers of scientific knowledge and moved the most promising basic research developments into tangible health benefits through human clinical trails. Ongoing research is also the key that will open the door to additional major medical advances and breakthroughs in the future.
Our staff at Medifocus is committed to keeping our subscribers to the Medifocus Digest Alert on Myelodysplastic Syndromes abreast of the latest new research developments that have recently been published in the medical literature for this condition.

What Our Customers Are Saying... "I purchased the MediFocus Guidebook on Myelodysplastic Syndromes to help my father understand the disease that he has. Doctors in France do not communicate very well the various treatment options neither do they tell you about the prognosis with enough clarity and confidence. We live in France and we believe there is no equivalent in Europe to the service you offer. We have read the Guidebook attentively and have learned a great deal about this condition. The wording is simple enough to be understandable even for non-native English speakers. It was money well spent!" P.M. Saint Ismier, France
"Your MediFocus Guidebook on Myelodysplastic Syndromes has been a valuable companion in providing wise counsel to a beleaguered soul. Many times I was comforted by knowing that I could have my questions answered correctly and completely by using your Guidebook. I wouldn't be without it for anything. Thank you again and again." S.M. Rockville, Maryland
"Your Medifocus Guidebook on Myelodysplastic Syndromes has been extremely valuable to me in understanding the complicated disease that afflicts me. It can be very depressing but to understand it intellectually can be very calming and heartening. Fear of the unknown is most devastating and your Guidebook provides the facts in an understandable way without 'watering-down' the science. Thank you for your outstanding publication." N.M. Los Angeles, California
