ALT Des, one of our IBHO volunteers is wearing a blue shirt and smiling. On the right are logos for Improving Black Health Outcomes, NIHR BioResource, Genomics England and King's College London. Below is a quote from Des, If this study helps us understand how sickle cell disease affects the African Caribbean Community, it will be really helpful. By collecting specific information, we can potentially create better treatments and support systems for our community.
