The Treating Fairly Research Award, offered by the American Society of Hematology (ASH), is designed to advance research that addresses disparities in health outcomes among patients with hematologic diseases. This award was established in response to reduced federal support for research on blood disorders disproportionately impacting specific populations. The program aims to foster equitable research opportunities and improve outcomes for all patients affected by hematologic conditions. It is part of ASH’s expanded commitment to supporting at-risk communities and researchers facing funding gaps.
