I'm back from Europe, now in Washington at the NCI Director's Consumer Liaison Group meeting (DCLG) -- NCI is the National Cancer Institute (US).
The meetings are open, and are being webcast if you are interested.
http://dclg.cancer.gov/
We are talking about how to accelerate the development of better treatments -- and cures! -- for cancer. Dr. Niederhuber has outlined some excellent changes that he and his staff have been working on for the past two years. I large amount of money from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act is being channeled into these changes to get things going. Please listen in to the conversation. You can join us live Oct 20-22, 2009, or the meeting will be archived and made available on the website.
Best wishes,
Joyce
