I thought I would share this here with those of you who might want to ask a question of the National CML Society (USA) Expert Panel that consists of Drs. Michael Mauro, Jorge Cortes, Moshe Talpaz and Neil Shah.
I think this is a great service, NCMLS do ask if you are based in the US or not is so that they can be certain to provide information that is applicable in the individual questioners country and not as an exclusion criteria. So all are welcome to use this excellent service.

'With CML being a rare form of leukemia, it is not often that you have the opportunity to ask an expert in the field for suggestions.
With our Ask the CML Experts portal, interacting with a CML Specialist is just a click away!
Prior to submitting your questions, we invite you to view the FAQ section as you very well might find the answer is already here. Every FAQ has come directly from the CML Community and has been answered by the specialists on our panel.
Here's how the system works:
You submit your question via our secured submission form.
A Hematology/Oncology nurse, experienced in CML triages your question.
Your question is compared to others in our database to determine if we already have the answers or if the question is escalated to a specialist.
Once the question is answered, you receive a custom report.
After your report has been sent to you, we remove any personally identifying information and place your question in the FAQ section so others can benefit from the knowledge the specialists have shared.'
