Karen Knudsen: Congratulations to all the award winners at ASCO24

Karen Knudsen shared a post on LinkedIn:

“I’m so honored to work with American Cancer Society board member Rob Winn – congratulations on this well-deserved Visionary Leader Award!

And congratulations to all of the other award winners this year at ASCO24.

I’d particularly like to highlight:

Dr. Lori Pierce, winner of the ASCO Excellence in Equity Award, endowed by the American Cancer Society.

Dr. Smita Bhatia, winner of the ASCO – American Cancer Society Cancer Prevention Award.

Striving toward health equity, as well as promoting prevention and early detection, is central to what we do here at ACS. Thank you to all of the winners for all you do on behalf of cancer patients and families!”
