Vale Professor Connie Eaves (1944 - 2024) - A Stem Cell Icon
March 2024 - With sadness we share the news of the death of Connie Eaves, a great friend, mentor and inspiration to those in the CML community.
‘‘Science is like an art in that it’s your performance that matters. If you produce a good song today it’s not necessarily going to last forever. This is, in part, what attracts people into science; it is that very insecurity that provides the drive to keep creating something new.”2 Connie Eaves
Dr Connie Eaves made major contributions to the understanding of leukemia and breast cancer biology. Her pioneering research, including the identification of quiescent cancer stem cells, revolutionised cancer treatments and research methodologies worldwide.

This International Women’s Day we’re taking a moment to acknowledge the many incredible women who are an unwavering force in the battle against CML. We proudly stand alongside the remarkable women who have dedicated their careers to advancing research, improving patient care, and raising awareness about CML.
Today we’re celebrating three of the amazing women we work with in Pakistan, China and Ghana as they tell us about their experiences as a woman working in CML, and their advice for other women in the field.
