About Global Sickle Cell Disease Network
The Global Sickle Cell Disease Network (GSCDN), is a community of sickle cell disease (SCD) clinicians and scientists committed to clinical care for, and study of, people with SCD globally. Realizing the gap in clinical care, research and education about SCD in low and middle-income countries (LMICs), GSCDN engages SCD experts around the world through a network that supports growth in these areas, particularly in LMICs that shoulder the heaviest burden of SCD.
