We at @cancersociety are thrilled to release the pan-Canadian Cancer Data Strategy in partnership with @cancerstratCA. It’s the country’s first strategy that focuses on cancer-specific data challenges.

“To drive truly life-changing progress that meets the needs of all those affected by cancer, we must put people at the core of research.” Check out this piece by @stuartd_e about how @cancersociety is engaging people with lived cancer experience to transform the future of cancer.

NOW ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS: We are pleased to announce that the @cancersociety Challenge Grants program is once again open to research teams motivated to tackle significant challenges in cancer. More details below.

Men of West African ancestry have a higher risk of prostate cancer than other ethnic groups and research shows they lack the same access to high-quality care. A team led by @AKLofters is working with Black communities to identify barriers & develop tools to reduce such inequities

COMING SOON - New funding opportunity: We are thrilled to announce the 2023 @cancersociety Emerging Scholar Research Grants to fund early-career researchers across Canada. Each grant is valued at up to $120,000 per year for 5 years. 1/2
