In today's Media Digest: Thanks to a @cancersociety challenge grant, the @CDCofBC and @BCCancer are launching a study to combat online misinformation about #cancer causes and prevention. Learn more: bccdc.ca/about/news-sto… @PHSAofBC @HedyFry
Research to Action! As part of our networking and knowledge-sharing program, @cancersociety Research Training Award recipients attended a workshop led by our Advocacy Manager @thewaywardrose to learn how to connect their work to policies that can improve cancer research and care.
People with cancer and caregivers in rural and remote communities often don't get enough support and information, leading to poorer outcomes. Meet 4 @cancersociety-funded research teams working to improve access to cancer prevention & care for this group: cancer.ca/en/about-us/st…
We are featuring 22 @cancersociety-funded cancer research projects at the BC Research Showcase - happening now at the Centre for Cancer Prevention and Support!
Presentation by @LFerri123 about their team’s Breakthrough project to understand what causes treatment resistance in esophageal cancer and identify new methods and treatment options for overcoming this resistance, ultimately improving outcomes and saving lives.
Dr Alison Wallace and @UrquhartRobin present their team’s Breakthrough project in examining the effects of environmental exposures in non-smokers to help detect lung cancer earlier and save lives.
Dr Steven Gallinger presents their team’s Breakthrough project to create a pancreatic cancer research program focused on screening, earlier detection, better understanding of the disease biology, and personalized treatments to improve survival for one of the deadliest cancers.
Julia Sobotka presents her team's Breakthrough project with CHARM Consortium to conduct a clinical trial to improve detection, treatment and quality of life for people with a genetic predisposition to cancer.
Presentation by @gelarehzadeh, @AndrewAjisebutu, @shreya_gandhi2, @MansouriSheila and @Sty_md about their Breakthrough project to develop a non-invasive technique to improve outcomes for people with brain cancer through better diagnosis, monitoring of treatment and prediction.
Presentation by @DrNCoburn about their Breakthrough project with @mygutfeelingca in examining nutritional support and guidelines to improve treatment outcomes and quality of life for people with stomach cancer.
Dr Rayjean Hung and @renellemyers present their Breakthrough project co-funded by @cancersociety and the Lotte & John Hecht Memorial Foundation using AI to design different approaches to the early detection of lung cancer in people who are currently ineligible for screening.
Dr Guy Sauvageau talks about their Breakthrough project co-funded by @cancersociety and the Lotte & John Hecht Memorial Foundation to study a novel non-toxic cancer therapy based on 2 compounds that kill cancer cells without affecting normal ones.
Dr Rebecca Harrison is presenting their Breakthrough project in joining an international clinical trial to potentially improve outcomes for people with low-survival brain cancers.
Presentation by @auer_r about their Breakthrough project to expand access to clinical trials and personalized treatments for people with biliary tract cancers, accelerating progress and providing hope to people with this devastating disease.
We are officially under way at the Breakthrough Team Grants Symposium in Vancouver! Looking forward to an afternoon of learning between researchers, trainees, patient partners, funding partners, reviewers, donors and @cancersociety staff.
We are now recruiting cancer survivors from all across Canada to participate in a brand new study to test the usability of an insomnia treatment app tailored for cancer survivors. If you are interested, email [email protected] to schedule an eligibility screening.

Thank you so much @CCSResearch for inviting Margaret (Patient Partner) and I to share an update on our study regarding healthy aging among older adults living with and beyond cancer at the CCS BC Research Showcase this evening!
What a wonderful evening! Major thanks to @CCSResearch and to everyone who stopped by to chat and ask questions about our research that is exploring the meaning of healthy aging among older adults living with and beyond cancer.
We are featuring 22 @cancersociety-funded cancer research projects at the BC Research Showcase - happening now at the Centre for Cancer Prevention and Support!
It has been an absolutely incredible two days of amazing world class research. And this is just the beginning of a five year run!
