Re: Lasker award to Drs Slamon, Ullrich, Shepard
Thanks for posting, Lani. Lots of excellent science and discoveries. All of this research builds upon itself and we are so fortunate that the dedicated doctors and researchers continue on the mission to save lives. Hard work that benefits us all. And of course all of us with Her2 are thankful to Dr. Slamon for inventing Herceptin.
