WINE & DINE IN THE D

Wine & Dine in the D, this year, kicks off with a multiple myeloma educational panel discussion including prominent myeloma doctors, and for the wine enthusiasts this year we have a wine tasting experience taking place at the same time.  These two experiences are then 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 Westin Book Cadillac but will also include a virtual (and recorded) option for the Multiple Myeloma discussion.

REGISTRATION IS AVAILABLE ONSITE

OPEN TO SPONSORS AND ATTENDEES
