Subject: PCC and Movember Announcement - Research Grants

 

Good morning everyone,

 

I want to take this opportunity to let you know that this morning Prostate
Cancer Canada and the Movember Foundation have announced $4M in research
grants.

 

The funding has been granted to three Canadian researchers to predict how
well prostate cancer will respond to treatment, based on men’s biological
markers, specifically in their tumour cells and blood-opening the path to
more personalized care with fewer side effects and a better chance of
survival.

 

These grants have been awarded to Dr. Tarek Bismar from the University of
Calgary, Dr. Hansen He from the University Health Network in Toronto, and
Dr. Kim Chi from BC Cancer.  

 

The aim of the research is to determine how we use a man’s tumor biology to
offer better care to men at three critical stages of their prostate cancer
journey.

 

Please take a moment to click on the link below to learn more and where you
think it is helpful please share with your groups:

these on Prostate Cancer Canada’s Twitter, Facebook and Instagram.

 

Thanks very much,

Anne
