Claire Pomeroy: Celebrating the 2026 Lasker Awards and Why Medical Research Matters
Claire Pomeroy, President of the Albert and Mary Lasker Foundation, shared a post on X:
“The Lasker Awards celebrate biomedical research across the full spectrum of discovery, from basic to clinical research, as well as the advocacy needed to ensure that the benefits of these advances reach all those who need them.
In a series of articles, Journal of Clinical Investigation celebrates the 2026 Lasker Awards:
The identification of orexin – a brain peptide that maintains wakefulness, the invention of a bispecific antibody for treating hemophilia A, and Parkinson’s disease research advocacy.
Together, these stories are a powerful reminder of why medical research matters.”
