For Dr. Frank Weinberg, lung cancer is both professional and personal. As a thoracic oncologist and lung cancer researcher at UI Health and University of Illinois Chicago Cancer Center, he has the privilege of caring for patients while working in the lab to better understand and treat this disease. But his commitment also comes from his own family, having lost both his aunt and grandmother to lung cancer.

“I am proud to support LUNGevity Foundation’s incredible work funding research, advocacy, and patient support—and am especially excited that this fundraiser involves comedy, because after years of talking about cancer, grant deadlines, and marathon training with Team LUNGevity, I firmly believe laughter should be considered evidence-based medicine.”

Early bird tickets are on sale now for Laughs for LUNGevity. https://t.co/BPTvlnUf0g It is sure to be a night of fun in Chicago!

What if #lungcancer biomarker results didn’t have to take weeks? The UTOPIA pilot shows results can be delivered within 72 hrs for 100% of patients—driven by workflow & communication, not new tech. https://t.co/DOOfZ8CkeH @javierDcastro @LuisPaz_Ares @susanahprieto

Why do you want to study small cell lung cancer?

For my Dad. For our patients to live longer. For one more lap. To help find cures. To spread hope.

#WhenSheStandsUp, she shares her story to spread awareness about early detection. 🙌 Catherine Thoma is a breast cancer survivor who discovered a lump and immediately scheduled an appointment with her doctor: "My story would be very different if I hadn't found the cancer early, and I am lucky I found it. I don't want people to just be lucky; I want people to be educated and aware.”
