Lopsided treatment for minorities

Read this in the New York Times this morning. Applies to all research.

I was privileged enough to have CAR-T this year and continue to do well not everyone has that kind of luck you have to be in the right place at the right time, get the information, have the finances, and ability to take time off from your usual responsibilities. How much I have to be thankful for and how much work there is to pay it back and forward.

Here is a shoutout to Seattle Cancer Care Alliance and the Gold team.

Very sobering to see the the reality of the situation. Hopefully more will get access to the new trials. Merry Christmas to you and all.
