It is with deep sadness that we share news of the passing of Dr. Connie Eaves, distinguished scientist at BC Cancer’s Terry Fox Laboratory and professor in the Department of Medical Genetics and the School of Biomedical Engineering at UBC.
It is difficult to convey what a great loss this is to the cancer research community not only in British Columbia and Canada, but throughout the world. Connie leaves a lasting international legacy as trailblazer in the field of stem cell research and an advocate for more women in the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM).
The Eaves family will be holding a Celebration of Life for Connie starting at 1:30 pm on Sunday, May 5, 2024 at the Chan Centre at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver. More information can be found on the website here. This Celebration of Life is open to all those who would like to attend. For planning purposes, we kindly ask that anyone who would like to attend complete the short form found here.
