In this special episode, host Patrick James Lynch reflects on turning forty…and on forty years of life with hemophilia. Joined by Dr. Donna DiMichele, Patrick traces the parallel evolution of his own experience and the hemophilia community's journey through crisis, discovery, and innovation. From the HIV epidemic of the 1980s to the arrival of gene therapy and digital health, they explore how science, data, and humanity have shaped the story of hemophilia. Together, they ask: what have we learned, what still can't be measured, and what might the next forty years hold?

In this episode, we take a deep dive into the state of the treatment pipeline for bleeding disorders. From the way clinical trials are structured to what's actually available for different conditions, we examine both the promise and the reality of innovation in this space. Recorded live at the NBDF Bleeding Disorders Conference, we join Mike Recht, MD, PhD, Chief Science and Medical Officer of NBDF, for a "research posters walk & talk" to explore what's happening right now — and why so many promising treatments never make it to market.

For too long, women and girls who bleed have been dismissed. Left out of the narrative. Ignored by the system. But not anymore.

In our new film, "Dismissed," meet Isabelle—a 15-year-old with hemophilia who's using her voice to uplift the unheard. Alongside her are four powerful stories of women challenging what's "normal" and demanding recognition, care, and justice.
