To realize this vision, the center will broaden its research program to a greater range of pediatric cancers, expand its laboratory-based research initiatives, strengthen its clinical research program in solid tumors and further invest in Seattle Children’s world-class clinical research programs in leukemia and stem cell transplantation (also known as bone marrow transplantation).
