What We Support

The Hematology, Oncology and Stem Cell Transplantation Fellowship Program.

In January 2024, the Children’s Service Board announced a new fundraising pledge: a two-year, $2 million commitment to the Hematology, Oncology and Stem Cell Transplantation Fellowship Program at Lurie Children’s. The future of children’s health is directly tied to the strength of our pediatric workforce. As the complexity of pediatric care increases and the demand for specialized services grows, there is a need for more physicians who have the training and experience to address the unique and changing needs of children.

Fellows who train with our program stand to make significant contributions to the field and transform the way we treat and cure childhood cancer and blood disorders. As frontline caregivers and junior investigators, these young doctors not only bring fresh perspectives to the field but also embody the spirit of empathy and commitment that defines our program. The CSB’s investment in the fellowship training program ensures that the legacy of high quality care for children with cancer and blood disorders will continue for generations to come.
