Edna “Eti” Cukierman, co-director of the Marvin & Concetta Greenberg Pancreatic Cancer Institute and co-leader of the Cancer Signaling and Microenvironment Research Program at Fox Chase Cancer Center, was recently awarded the American Cancer Society’s Wilmott Family Professorship in Pancreatic Cancer.
Project Purple, a national nonprofit dedicated to empowering the fight against pancreatic cancer, is launching the Pancreatic Cancer Research Recovery Support Grant. The initiative provides up to two years of bridge or rescue funding for promising pancreatic cancer research projects that were disrupted due to administrative funding policy changes at major federal agencies such as the NIH, the Department of Defense, or the National Science Foundation.
