“We want to take the meaning of ‘cancer alley’ and redefine it,” said Paige Miller, President and Managing Member of Oleander Medical Technologies. “We would rather it mean that New Orleans and southern Louisiana are the best places to find treatment and cures for invasive cancers.”
Oleander’s efforts to make this goal a reality received major support from LSU Health Foundation (LSUHF). By using unrestricted endowment funds, they invested in the project after rigorous vetting by a strong team of LSU physicians and researchers.
