PHLBI's Mission Statement
Established in 2002, Pacific Heart, Lung & Blood Institute (“PHLBI”) is a non-profit institution 501(c)(3) focused on the treatment and prevention of malignant pleural mesothelioma. We support the research efforts of renowned mesothelioma surgeon Dr. Robert Cameron, who advocates the lung-sparing Pleurectomy/Decortication surgery for patients diagnosed with malignant pleural mesothelioma. Please click on the research tab on our homepage to learn more about Dr. Cameron’s work (in his own words) at the Punch Worthington Research Lab at UCLA, funded by Pacific Heart, Lung & Blood Institute.
The information presented on this website is designed to help you do your homework on the topic of mesothelioma. Patients and their families have told us repeatedly that ”arming yourself” with information is a highly effective way to help you face a mesothelioma diagnosis, and, that once you have conquered the “fear of the unknown”, everything else becomes less daunting.
Please feel free to contact PHLBI Executive Director Amy Sriberg at (310) 478-4678 or info@phlbi.org for more information about PHLBI.
