The Fellow on Call: The Heme/Onc Podcast
We quickly realized we knew very little about hematology and oncology when we started fellowship. Our goal is to bring you the fundamentals, core concepts and important management approaches in our field, driven by the latest evidence and expert opinion. In each episode, we will provide bite-sized, simplified approaches to common questions in a way that is perfect for anyone interested in hematology and oncology, from students and trainees to advanced practice providers and practicing physicians.
