[Breast Cancer Canada @BreastCancerCDN]

Breast Cancer Canada is excited to announce the 2024 Precision Oncology Research Grant Recipients, totalling $500,000 in new Canadian breast cancer research funding.

Breast Cancer Canada’s Scientific Advisory Committee awards funding across the spectrum of breast cancer research – from basic discovery studies to accelerating the translation of results into clinical practice. We send our congratulations to the successful applicants!

We remain dedicated to progress through research, advocacy for access to the best care, and elevating the patient voice to improve the lives of those affected by breast cancer.

The future of breast cancer detection hinges on our collective ability to adapt and innovate. As we push for earlier screenings and embrace cutting-edge research, we must not lose sight of the patients and stories that fuel our mission. It is only through united action that we will achieve our ultimate goal: a world without breast cancer.

Through targeted funding, we are driving innovation and improving outcomes for the breast cancer patients of tomorrow. You can Know More about these investments at: https://t.co/NZyM49rA9A

Mammography, the go-to first screening method for breast cancer, becomes inaccurate when the person has dense breast tissue. #CRTPTrainee CK Khor at @UNB wants to find better methods. https://t.co/L5SF1xblqn.
