“Today has been a celebration of science and research as well as an acknowledgement of the incredible life of Walter Lawrence Jr. Today is nothing less than a remarkable gathering of minds and spirits, all dedicated to advancing cancer research. I am humbled to share this day with the one of the foremost physician-scientists, Siddhartha Mukherjee.”
