This Women’s History Month and all year long, The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) salutes the female LLS-funded researchers who have made and are making a world of difference in the fight against blood cancer.
LLS believes that diverse backgrounds, identities, abilities, and experiences are the greatest sources of creativity and innovation as we work to create a more equitable world without blood cancer. LLS-funded researchers like Dr. Leslie Crews will help get us there.
Dr. Crews is an Assistant Professor of Medicine at UCSD with a passion for stem cell biology and translational cancer research—applying her findings from the lab to patients in clinics. Since starting her independent laboratory in 2017, her primary focus has been on multiple myeloma research. Her ongoing work aims to discover new treatments for patients with this incurable blood cancer.
Donate today to help celebrate the contributions of women in science like Dr. Crews. With your help, their research will make history as they improve the lives of blood cancer patients and, someday, find cures.
