What incredible news today. I feel so grateful to have worked closely with Tony over the years and to have witnessed firsthand his vision, energy, and commitment to advancing functional precision medicine. I cannot think of a steadier (and more needed) force at the NCI at this time /n
We want to congratulate our President, Dr. Tony Letai, on his appointment as Director of the NCI. This announcement marks an historic moment for cancer research. Dr. Letai has been a tireless advocate and visionary leader for functional precision medicine 🧵
