Progress! But we must keep the pressure on through the August recess! The #Fight4Hematology is more urgent than ever.
Good news! The Senate’s leadership is proposing a $400M NIH funding increase for FY26. Now ASH urges the House to support the Senate numbers. ASH can’t do it alone—join the #Fight4Hematology: call, email, or meet with your Rep today. 🔗 https://bit.ly/3YeapvY

Spent the past few days visiting the @fredhutch.bsky.social to celebrate the impact of Dr. Rainer Storb on hematology & the thousands of patients living with blood disorders as the @ash.hematology.org Coulter Award winner.

Dr. Storb’s passion, curiosity, and persistence is so inspiring. #ASH25

The need to support science & access to care has never been more urgent!

Cuts to research & the elimination of key federal programs threaten to stall U.S. innovation and put the lives of millions with blood disorders at risk.

ASH decries HHS restructuring and CDC layoffs. The Blood Disorders Division addresses SCD, thrombosis, hemophilia, thalassemia, and more. Millions' health is at stake; ASH urges immediate action.

I am still in shock by the horror of what this woman was subject to but grateful for her strength and courage to become a public hero and bright light in the face of such violence. This is my person of the year. Thank you. www.nytimes.com/2024/12/19/s...

The French rape trial is over. The verdicts have been levied. And Gisèle Pelicot’s image has become a symbol of female strength around the world.
