Funding Fellowships<br />

Because the future for children with cancer rests on the doctors and researchers who are training<br />

today, <strong>CURE</strong> fully funds two pediatric oncology fellows at the Emory University School of Medicine<br />

each year. This year, <strong>CURE</strong> continued to fund two outstanding fellows, Dr. Jonathan Metts and<br />

Dr. David Siegel. We also funded a third, newly-endowed fellowship.<br />

“Besides the extensive training, I have been inspired by<br />

relationships with patients and families. I hope to continue<br />

to see and treat patients in the clinic, focusing mainly on<br />

leukemia and lymphoma and novel therapies to improve<br />

patient outcomes.”<br />

D r. Dav i d Si e ge l<br />

“I enjoy this collaborative and educational workplace.<br />

After this training, I hope to apply my skills to a career in<br />

oncology, both taking care of patients and researching how to<br />

improve the quality of care of cancer patients and survivors.”<br />
