COVID-19 Research
More than one-fifth of Fred Hutch researchers have active projects related to COVID-19. Across the organization, scientists are tackling all aspects of the disease and the SARs-CoV-2 virus that causes it — including coordinating vaccine development, testing potential therapies, tracking how it spreads, how it affects our bodies and how to safely return to schools and offices.
Our Commitment
Fred Hutch is committed to becoming an anti-racist institution. In this endeavor, we are determined to strengthen and deepen our efforts that affirm the equal rights, value and protection of Black people and other minority communities — in the streets, on our campus and in our science.
This spring, we assessed our progress toward our goals and released an annual report in early June.

From Bacteria to Cancer
Early in her career, Dr. Nina Salama was captivated by the idea that a bacterium — Helicobacter pylori — could cause cancer. She’s now a leader in understanding how the bug colonizes the stomach and triggers the chronic inflammation that can lead to gastric ulcers and, for some, stomach cancer — the second-leading cancer killer worldwide.
Filling the Gap for Older Patients
At the heart of what Dr. Mohamed Sorror does lies an unfortunate reality: Most people with blood cancers like leukemias are seniors, and yet research studies aimed at improving care for these diseases routinely exclude them. That leaves a big gap in knowledge about how best to care for these patients. And Sorror has dedicated his career to filling it in.
