“It was truly special catching up with a dear friend, Gevorg Tamamyan, co-founder and Editor-In-Chief of OncoDaily and President International Society of Paediatric Oncology – SIOP Asia. I’m especially grateful for his unwavering support during my UICC campaign, his motivation, and his dedication to advancing cancer care across Africa and other LMICs.

His courage and innovative spirit are a constant source of inspiration, and I’m always moved by the fresh perspectives he brings. I need to find his secret and tap into it so that I can have the energy to keep up. With Gevorg, nothing is impossible!

Looking forward to more impactful collaborations.”
