  • Informative & Inspirational Podcast

    I worked in cancer at two different academic centers for almost 20 yrs. in a supportive admin position for several clinical research physicians. Having experienced the sadness & tragedy of cancer in family & close friends over the years, I wanted to do something to help in this fight. That is why I donate to our local AACR each year. Someone from the local AACR made me aware of this podcast. It is very informative & inspirational.
