The National Coalition for Cancer Survivorship (NCCS) is proud to announce Susan Leigh, BSN, RN-retired, as a recipient of the 2025 Ellen L. Stovall Award for Innovation in Patient-Centered Cancer Care.

Accelerated aging is defined as a phenomenon where the biological (physiological) age exceeds chronological age. Clinically, accelerated aging phenotypes in cancer survivors include the premature development of subsequent neoplasms, frailty, chronic organ dysfunction, and cognitive impairment, all of which can impact long-term health and lifespan in survivors of cancer.
