American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) shared on their LinkedIn:

”May is Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AA and NHPI) Heritage Month.

The AACR celebrates the myriad contributions of immigrants of Asian descent, natives of Hawai’i, and Pacific Islanders to advancing our mission to prevent and cure all cancers.
