SITC has convened the cancer immunotherapy community for decades (way before it was cool!) and has provided platforms for me to share my science and love for cellular immunotherapy and glycobiology and to influence DEI efforts. I am honored to be considered for At-Large Director.
SITC is excited to announce the candidates of the 2023 SITC Election! On May 2-16, SITC members will vote to select the society’s next Secretary/Treasurer and three At-Large Directors. Read the biography and platform statement of each candidate: sitcancer.org/membership/202…

Had a conversation with my 6-year daughter this morning about why we need to celebrate women in science. She just couldn't understand why women were thought of as less capable and unfit for research!
