Various Cancer and Hematology Centers of Western Michigan (CHCWM) and START Midwest clinical trials were presented last weekend as a part of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO)’s Virtual Annual Meeting. ASCO is a platform for scientists and clinicians to share knowledge gained from conducting clinical oncology research. CHC would like to congratulate the CHCWM Research and START Midwest teams for their accomplishments. Check out the trial abstracts and principal investigators featured below:
