Dr. Christian Steidl, senior scientist and Executive Director, Research at BC Cancer, is the recipient of a 2025 Operating Grant in Blood Cancer, co-funded by AstraZeneca Canada and the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society of Canada.

The research is dedicated to developing innovative tools for precise and efficient gene editing in B-cell lymphomas. By targeting the underlying genetic causes of cancer, this work paves the way for novel treatment strategies and opens new possibilities for patients living with B-cell lymphoma.

The Canadian-based research awards program aims to strengthen the understanding, diagnosis and treatment of blood cancers.
