Fred Hutch turns 50!
Take a look back at half a century of leading-edge research and compassionate care.
John Scheleen joined Fred Hutch Cancer Center’s Office of Sponsored Research in 2006. Six years later, he found a “weird” mole that catapulted him beyond the world of grants and financial reports and into the world of patient care.
In this episode, Scheleen talks about what it’s like to live with melanoma and how his work closing out grants is even more meaningful when he occasionally recognizes the names of providers he’s encountered during treatment.
