- After the loss of her father, Lauren takes courageous action to spread awareness about the importance of stem cell donations amongst minority groups. After Lauren lost her father to leukemia in 2020, she found a new sense of purpose. She has used her life-altering experience as a way to educate others about the importance of joining the stem cell registry and the impact that a stem cell transplant could have on patients like her father. Lauren’s advocacy at Western has broadened awareness and commitment to HLA-typing in marginalized communities and ethnic minority backgrounds. While going through the grief of her father, she touches upon some lessons that she has learned along the way.
Her devotion to carry on her father’s legacy is a commitment that she made to herself after his passing. Choosing to move forward when faced with adversity, challenge or loss is something that she will speak about; while highlighting the power that each one of us carries about bringing meaningful change within the community. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
