Dr. David Dale, Professor Medicine at the UW, speaks about the critical role of the white blood cells, called neutrophils, in the body's defenses against infections, and describes how these cells are made to kill bacteria. He discusses the consequences of not having enough neutrophils, a condition called neutropenia, and what can now be done to alleviate this problem. He also talks with former patients who lend their perspective on their conditions and treatment.
