Join us at our Annual Awards Gala and connect with pioneers driving change in immunotherapy research and innovation.

A Special Message from our new CEO, Alicia Zhou, PhD

The CheckPoints is a band made up entirely of oncologists and cancer researchers focused on immunotherapy. The idea for the band came from Dr. Patrick Hwu, the president and CEO of Moffitt Cancer Center, and Dr. Thomas Gajewski, a professor at the University of Chicago. Dr. Hwu recruited professor and chair of immunology at MD Anderson, Nobel Laureate Dr. James Allison and Dr. Rachel Humphrey, CEO Normunity to form The CheckPoints.

Other members include:

  • Lisa Butterfield, PhD, Merck
  • Anna Crosetti, MD, Massachusetts General Hospital
  • Russell Pachynski, MD, Washington University School of Medicine
  • Brad Reinfeld, a MD, PhD, University of California, Los Angeles
