History

Since 2015, more than $ 624,000 has been invested in research projects and the purchase of specialized equipment.

Review of funded projects:

  • 2023 : Proceeds went to support a research program in artificial intelligence to improve the care of cancer patients. They enabled the purchase of servers to help predict cancer response, personalize treatments and reduce side effects, in ENT, lung, digestive, prostate and brain cancers.
  • 2022 : Funds were raised for brain cancer research.
  • 2019 : Funds were raised for research on glioblastoma, a malignant brain tumor.
  • 2018: The establishment of a new research program that examines the importance of interactions between lymphoma and the environment present in the lymph nodes on the function of immune cells, in relation to the response to treatment. It will support the development of new treatments for lymphoma.
  • 2017: The acquisition of a device that allows you to view cells cultured in the laboratory in real time and to monitor their behavior in the face of new treatments.
  • 2016: A clinical and basic research project that revolves around a cohort of adults in remission struggling with side effects following treatment for cancer received at a young age.
  • 2015: Purchase of advanced cancer tumor analysis equipment to refine diagnosis and predict response to treatment.
