WHY WE'RE FUNDRAISING WITH THE JIMMY FUND WALK TO FIGHT CANCER

Thank you for visiting this Giving Page to honor Dr. Larissa Lee and her legacy at Dana-Farber/Brigham and Women's Cancer Center. 
 
Larissa and her husband, Jai first met as medical students at Harvard in 2001. The kindness, compassion, and gentle touch her patients saw years later was evident even then. She was one of the most talented people in her class, but never boastful or showy. She was beloved by all, family, friends, patients, colleagues, classmates, mentors and mentees alike. Because of all the lives she touched, we hope to raise funds to inspire others by creating a lectureship in her honor. The Larissa Lee, MD, Endowed Lecture will bring together physicians, researchers, and others furthering care for those with gynecological cancers, a field to which Larissa dedicated her life. Contributions exceeding the endowed lecture level will be used in other ways to honor Larissa's memory. 
 
Larissa is a native of Derby, KS, and she graduated from the University of Kansas in 1999. She then earned a masters at Cambridge University in the UK on a prestigious Churchill Fellowship. She returned to the US to attend medical school at Harvard and MIT. She graduated  from the Health Sciences and Technology program with an MD in 2005. She completed her residency in Radiation Oncology at Harvard and practiced at Brigham and Women’s Hospital for 10 years. She was an accomplished physician-scientist with a gentle bedside manner, beloved by her patients and colleagues, and a devoted wife and mother of two. She loved the outdoors, travel, and spending time with her family. She is survived by her husband Jai Eswara, MD (Newton, MA), sons Ethan and Erik, sister Brittany Bychkovsky (Cambridge, MA), brother Chris Mellee (Chicago, IL), parents Susan and John Lee (Hayden Lake, ID), numerous trainees, friends, and patients whose lives she touched.
