Mark Lawler: European Cancer Groundshot Research is a necessity, not a luxury
Mark Lawler shared a post by Irish Cancer Society on X, adding:
“Remember our often quoted work The Lancet Oncology – people who are treated in research active hospitals have better outcomes than those who are not.
European Cancer Groundshot Research is a necessity, not a luxury…”
Qouting Irish Cancer Society’s post:
“Cancer is the single biggest killer in Ireland, so why are we trailing behind other countries when it comes to access to lifesaving treatment? Thanks to the power of cancer research, 60% of people now survive cancer.”
