Thrilled to be part of the first International Brain Tumour Research Summit with experts exploring the latest developments & opportunities in brain cancer research. Proud to present this inspiring event with @MarkHughesFdn @CCF_MDL Isabella & Marcus Foundation @_RCDFoundation
Attending #LorneCancer was incredibly inspiring for some of our world-class researchers (and our CEO, Sam McGuane)! Many brilliant minds joined together for three days of talks and workshops, exploring some recent breakthroughs in cancer research and sharing expertise.
This powerful recreation has to move people together in the direction of our Vision: that one day no lives are lost to brain cancer. Thank you to Amy and the Stephenson family.
