“Early-career leaders in oncology . . . are making an enormous impact on patients and the cancer community, but many of these individuals have not had the opportunity to be widely recognized,” said event spokesperson Jennifer Hinkel in a press release. “40 Under 40 in Cancer is an effort to highlight the contributions of these rising stars.”

The award ceremony was held at Marshall’s Landing in Chicago, Illinois, on June 1.
