Shane Jacobson, Chief Executive Officer of the American Cancer Society (ACS) and American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network (ACS CAN), shared on LinkedIn:
“I believe that we hold the opportunity to ‘out-collaborate cancer!’
We recently spent time with Dr. Margaret Foti and her colleagues American Association for Cancer Research to discuss the future of cancer research and the power of partnership.
The progress we’ve made against cancer has been fueled by collaboration and we need more of it. The challenges ahead will require us to work together and find new ways to add value. By aligning our strengths, from groundbreaking discovery to advocacy to speeding the impact of breakthroughs to reach patients more quickly, we can accelerate progress for everyone affected by cancer.
Grateful for the thoughtful conversation and the shared commitment to creating a future where cancer is prevented, detected earlier, treated more effectively, and ultimately defeated.”
