I was thrilled to see the unexpected news that Dr. Toni Choueiri will become Director of the Genitourinary Oncology Disease Center and the Lank Center for Genitourinary Oncology.
I asked an oncologist why he thinks we need funding for kidney cancer research immediately. Here is what he said.
Cancer survivors are everywhere, but are we taking the opportunity to ask, "How has it changed you?" Opening my eyes and asking that question has changed me.
A search of National Cancer Institute website shows no new kidney cancer trials anywhere in the United States, same as last week. It's time to fund new research.
Even with tough cancers like kidney cancer, we can see miracles. In genetics research, we are seeing the miracle of the blueprint of cancer slowly unfolding.
Some of you have known Gary and me for years. We have been fighting kidney cancer for more than a decade, but we still move forward with hope.
