Donnall Thomas. In the last half of the twentieth century, Thomas himself discovered a cure for every marrow-based disease, like leukemia, lymphoma, and sickle-cell anemia, forever changing treatment for some of the deadliest illnesses. His feats were extraordinary, earning him a Nobel Prize, and the cascade of treatments he inspired have reshaped and will continue to reshape the practice of clinical medicine. Yet no one has ever written Thomas's courageous story"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Physicians. 650 0 $a Physicians $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Bone marrow $x History. $x History. 650 0 $a Cell- and Tissue-Based Therapy $x history. 600 10 $a Thomas, E.
