Thanks to Utah Jazz fans and other donors, 5 For The Fight has hired nine promising researchers who are early in their careers in the first cohort of 5 For The Fight Cancer Research Fellowship. These individuals are investing in new, innovative research directions and are poised to make major impacts in the fight against cancer. Adding to an established team in Ireland, this Fellowship brings the total number of 5 For The Fight researchers hired to 12.
To date, 5 For The Fight has raised more than $25 million. Those funds have fueled several efforts including 13 premier cancer research centers globally.
