WINE & DINE IN THE D

Started in 2010, Wine & Dine in the D is a two-part event that includes an educational panel discussion by prominent myeloma doctors, followed by a “Wine & Dine” evening, featuring delicious food and beverages from some of Detroit’s finest restaurants. Approximately 400 community members, patients, caregivers, and key opinion leaders in the myeloma community attend Wine & Dine in the D annually. We bring together specialists from around the country for the panel discussion and provide a platform for Metro Detroit patients and the community to learn about multiple myeloma and speak directly to these leading doctors.

This we will once again be back at the the Westin Book Cadillac but will also include a virtual (and recorded) option for the Multiple Myeloma discussion.

These were the participating restaurants and beverage provideers from 2022.  We expect even more this year!
