Six Researchers to Receive Prestigious Awards from the American Society of Hematology

Date:7/13/2009

ements in the area of stem cell biology for more than two decades. Dr. Eaves has been on the cutting edge of adapting or introducing technologies related to stem cell biology, especially her ground-breaking techniques of using the long-term culture system as means of understanding the proliferative and renewal properties of normal and malignant primitive human hematopoietic stem cells.

Louis M. Staudt, M.D., Ph.D., of the National Cancer Institute's Center for Cancer Research in Bethesda, MD, will be presented with the William Dameshek Prize, awarded to an individual who has made a recent outstanding contribution to the field. Dr. Staudt will be recognized for his landmark contributions to the diagnosis and treatment of lymphomas. Dr. Staudt pioneered the use of gene expression profiling to delineate clinically distinct lymphoma subtypes and molecular predictors of survival. He further showed that each molecular subtype of cancer has its own "Achilles heel," which can be discovered by loss-of-function RNA interference-based genetic screens. His work established a new paradigm for understanding the pathways of lymphomagenesis and the interactions of the malignant cell with its environment.

John E. Dick, Ph.D., of the University Health Network in Toronto, will be recognized with the E. Donnall Thomas Lecture and Prize for his pioneering research into the development of human leukemia, which has transformed the view of how leukemia progresses. This prize, named after a Nobel Prize laureate and past Society president, recognizes pioneering research achievements in hematology.

Thomas Maniatis, Ph.D., of Harvard University, Cambridge, MA, and Yuet Wai Kan, M.D., of the University of California - San Francisco, are the inaugural recipients of the Ernest Beutler Lecture and Prize. This award, named for the late Ernest Beutler, M.D., past president of ASH and physician-
