Damon Runyon News

December 2, 2020

The Damon Runyon Annual Breakfast looked different this year, but we were delighted to host the Reimagined Annual Breakfast virtually on December 2, 2020.




Our program featured Nobel Laureates William G. Kaelin, Jr., MD, and Harold E. Varmus, MD, who led a thought-provoking conversation with Damon Runyon scientists conducting research at Northwestern University, Stanford University, and University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center. We were also joined by Tony-award winning actor James Naughton, who gave wonderful remarks about his dedication towards cancer research A special opportunity to join "virtual tables" commenced after the program, where participants were put in small group discussions with a Damon Runyon scientist.
