Honor a Legacy in Hematology: Share Your Recommendation!
ASH is seeking your input to recognize distinguished hematologists through the potential naming of one or more of ASH’s prestigious honorific awards in their memory and honor, with a particular emphasis on elevating the legacy of individuals who had a significant impact on the field but may have historically lacked the visibility or acknowledgment they deserved. Help ASH ensure the Society’s highest honors reflect the full depth and breadth of those who have advanced the field.
ASH Expands Support with New Award Funding
ASH has made an investment of more than $12 million to address the sudden and massive cuts to federal research grants, training opportunities, and federal programs put in place by the new Administration. This includes a roughly $9 million increase in award funding, bringing ASH’s total awards commitment to more than $20 million over the next 12 months. This investment will provide support for an additional 600+ awardees at all career stages.
