Hematological Malignancies Subgroup
The Hematological Malignancies Subgroup came out of conversations started at CHRI Pediatric Cancer AOE events.
Goals:
- Increase communication between clinical, translational, and basic science researchers
- Provide resources for group members
- Promote new research projects- particularly those in line with the pediatric patient population in Omaha
