I am an advocate to promote awareness, education and increased funds for cancer research particularly hematologic malignancies. I also keep a current list of funding I find available for research; please go to the link on the right side of this page 'Hematologic Funding Info' if you would like more information about current funding opportunities.

AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY CELEBRATES 100 YEARS
The American Cancer Society is celebrating 100 years! ACS, thank you for all you do in the fight against cancer. Here is a press release from the ACS:
"Cancer death rates in the US have declined 20 percent since the early 1990s. That means we've helped save nearly 1.2 million lives during that time. In fact, because of your support, more than 400 people a day in the US are celebrating birthdays – people who otherwise would have been lost to the disease."
