The American Society of Hematology (ASH) has expanded its awards and mentorship programs to address the threats to funding for hematology research and to protect the pipeline of new hematologists entering the field. In these extraordinary times, the ASH RC is uniquely positioned to advance ASH’s Multifaceted Approach to Research and Regulatory Challenges in Hematology (MARRCH) initiative by expanding and diversifying its Multiple Myeloma (MM) Research Network.
