Congratulations Deborah Anderson, Franco Vizeacoumar and Yuliang Wu representing SK in the TFRI – Marathon of Hope Cancer Centres Network Pilot Project in the Prairie Consortium

The Marathon of Hope Cancer Centres Network is a bold vision led by The Terry Fox Research Institute and The Terry Fox Foundation with support from dozens of research and funding partners across Canada. Its goal is to accelerate the adoption of Precision Medicine for cancer through the creation of a pan-Canadian network of designated cancer centres. This network represents a powerful collaborative platform that will embed research in the cancer clinic, uniting the top-tier cancer researchers and clinicians in Canada and allowing them to share their data and apply exciting new technologies such as artificial intelligence to deliver the best outcomes for each cancer patient in Canada, no matter where they are. Just as Terry Fox united Canada with his dream and determination, the Marathon of Hope Cancer Centres will unite this country by sharing knowledge, harnessing technology and working together towards finding cures for cancer. The Prairie Cancer Research Consortium, consisting of Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba has launched its 2-year pilot project. The Saskatchewan participants include: Cancer Cluster members (Anderson, Vizeacoumar and Wu) as well as Andrew Freywald (Pathology) and Lynn Dwernychuk (Saskatchewan Cancer Agency).
