St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital discoveries are transforming the landscape of pediatric care
St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital shared on LinkedIn:
“When Danny Thomas founded St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, his vision was not just about building a hospital but providing hope for children with catastrophic diseases around the world. Today, on his birthday, we celebrate how far that vision has come. Through international collaboration, St. Jude discoveries are transforming the landscape of pediatric care, proving that innovation knows no boundaries.
St. Jude has helped push the overall childhood cancer survival rate from 20% to 80% in the United States. Improving those success rates around the world has become an increasing priority. Focused on three core areas—education, capacity building and research—St. Jude Global expands our institution’s worldwide presence with an ultimate goal that all children with cancer have access to quality care, no matter where they live.
His vision continues to inspire the work we do every day at St. Jude. By establishing a foundation of excellence, he empowered our researchers and clinicians to advance his dream that “no child should die in the dawn of life.”
Join us in honoring a remarkable individual whose legacy as both an entertainer and a humanitarian has brought hope and healing to families worldwide.
Happy Birthday, Danny!”
