Beginning in 1988, Las Madrinas made a commitment to establish and fund specific endowments in order to best meet the needs of Children’s Hospital Los Angeles (CHLA). We have earned a reputation for fostering leading-edge research that holds promise for future generations.
Las Madrinas Endowment for Diagnostic Innovation
$5 Million Endowment
The Las Madrinas Endowment for Diagnostic Innovation supports the transformational work conducted by the Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. Overseen by Alexander Judkins, MD, Chair of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine and Executive Director of the Center for Personalized Medicine, a team of nearly 275 faculty, physicians, laboratorians and researchers will work to develop a new generation of tests used to diagnose and care for children with leukemia and other types of cancer. These tests will help detect disease earlier, determine which therapies may be most effective and guide decisions that minimize the long-term side effects of treatments.
