We are looking forward to celebrating the authors of the 2026 HemaSphere Top-Cited Publication Award! Take a look at their publication below.
It's an honor to accept an award from @Hemasphere_EHA for their most cited paper from the last year. I'm accepting it in Stockholm next Thursday on behalf of @LesokhinMD, the entire team @PfizerOncMed and all of our patients, their families, the nurses and staff who made this possible. One small step in an amazing story of progress in multiple myeloma.
