The Ovarian Cancer Initiative at Michigan Medicine, led by Karen McLean, M.D., Ph.D., has received a generous bequest from Beth J. Johnson.

 

Karen McLean, M.D., Ph.D. and Beth J. Johnson

Per her wishes, Ms. Johnson’s bequest will be used to support further program development in the Ovarian Cancer Initiative as well as the education and training of those focused on improving ovarian cancer care and outcomes.  It is the culmination of her dedicated efforts and extensive volunteer work for the initiative. From serving as a mentor for ovarian cancer patients like herself to helping strategize the initiative’s official vision when it was in its infancy, Ms. Johnson, who died in December of 2017, left a lasting legacy.
