This morning Joe Gillette and his group of amazing volunteers (including Steve Bell and Mark Flynn) made HERstory by pulling eight American Cancer Society ResearchHERS to raise funds for Relay For Life and the American Cancer Society.
The American Cancer Society is proud to be a top supporter of women in cancer research. Currently, half of the American Cancer Society’s grantees are women, most of them early in their careers. Women make invaluable contributions to cancer research yet are underrepresented in research leadership. As the leading non-profit funder of cancer research in the US, the American Cancer Society can help sustain women-led cancer research, launch new careers, and inspire a new generation of young women considering careers in science. ResearcHERS is a movement that engages women to raise funds that directly support cancer researchers—women cancer researchers.
In tow today was Dr. Alpa Patel, Dr. Mia Gaudet , Dr. Samantha Puvanesarajah, Dr,@Lauren Teras Huebner, Dr. Corine Leach, Dr, Erika Rees-Punia, Dr. Caroline Um, & Dr. Ying Wan ALL representing the incredible women ResearcHERS who lead the fight against cancer.
See the videos (video 1, video 2, video 3, & video 4) and consider donating $8 ($1 for each ResearchHER).
