Jim Allison, Ph.D., chair of Immunology, didn’t set out to study cancer.
But in researching the biology of T cells, he discovered how to unleash the immune system to attack the disease. Melanoma patients who were given just months to live are still alive 10 years later thanks to Dr. Allison’s Nobel Prize-winning work.
Please give to The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center today and help pioneer breakthroughs that will save the lives of people facing cancer — and someday end this devastating disease.
Groundbreaking discoveries like Dr. Allison’s are the result of years of study by teams of researchers. “Science advances on the efforts of many,” he says.
So, I must ask, will you stand together with us today? MD Anderson's fiscal year is counting down, and we urgently need your gift to help accelerate treatments from the lab to the patient — bringing us closer to a world without cancer.
Our deadline is quickly approaching. Give before Aug. 31 to help fuel innovative cancer research, prevention, education and patient programs that will save lives. You can even designate your fiscal year-end gift in honor or in memory of someone you love.
Thank you for joining us in Making Cancer History®,
