Shane Jacobson, Chief Executive Officer of the American Cancer Society (ACS) and American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network (ACS CAN), shared a post on LinkedIn:
“At the American Cancer Society, we recently made a big announcement about our recent round of new CancerResearch projects. $80.7 million in new grants will go into effect this spring. Altogether, ACS is funding 128 new grants at 71 institutions across the country. We are excited to add these initiatives to our half-a-billion-dollar cancer research portfolio.
Funding the best new ideas and brilliant scientists is core to our strategy going forward. Thank you to many donors and partners that make this possible!
Congratulations to our Chief Scientific Officer William Dahut and his team for your work to move resources quickly to those ideas that can accelerate new knowledge and eventually save more lives.”
