About CIM
Welcome from CRI CEO
Alicia Zhou, PhD
Cancer immunotherapy has changed the way we understand and treat cancer by helping the immune system recognize, target, and fight the disease. For millions of patients and families, it has opened the door to new treatment options, longer survival, and renewed hope.
This CIM, CRI is highlighting the people and discoveries moving the field forward — from patients whose lives have been changed by immunotherapy to the scientists and supporters helping make the next breakthrough possible.
Help Advance the Next Cancer Immunotherapy Breakthrough
CIM celebrates how far the field has come — but the work is far from finished. The next breakthrough still needs bold science, sustained support, and a community committed to moving the field forward.
