CAR-T Meeting 2025 | Prehabilitation and rehabilitation to optimise function during CAR-T
In this video, Orla McCourt, MSc, MCSP, University College London NHS Foundation Trust, London, UK, briefly discusses the potential of implementing prehabilitation and rehabilitation to optimize function during CAR T-cell therapy.

This interview took place at the EHA-EBMT 7th European CAR T-cell Meeting, held in Strasbourg, France.
