Congratulations, Dr. McClain!

Happy to share that Dr. Ken McClain, Co-Director of the Histiocytosis Program at Texas Children’s Cancer & Hematology Center, has received the 𝗚𝗼𝗹𝗱𝗲𝗻 𝗣𝗶𝗻 𝗔𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱, the highest honor from the Histiocyte Society. This lifetime achievement award recognizes his extraordinary contributions to understanding and treating histiocytic disorders.
