Vancouver is March-ing towards success! 🥳
From coast-to-coast funding success to prestigious national awards, March was a standout month for the local science community.
Meet the researchers behind the breakthroughs, and check out our monthly award summary: https://bit.ly/47HjlPm
Terry Fox New Investigator Award for Hannah Garner — The Microbiology and Immunology/GCI prof investigates why the immune system can’t kill BRCA1-related breast and ovarian tumours, and how to harness the immune system against these aggressive cancers. 🔗https://ow.ly/5FrS50YzV0J
It's hard to believe that Phase 1 of MOHCCN is coming to an end.
When we first envisioned this Network, we had huge ambitions for its impact, but we never could have imagined we'd achieve them so quickly.
Congrats to everyone in the Network. These achievements would be impossible without you!

Some tumours hide from the immune system, while many treatments act like wrecking balls.
With $525,000 in TFRI funding, Dr. Bowen Li is designing a “smart” therapy that targets cancer while sparing healthy tissue.

Le système immunitaire détecte les cancers liés au gène BRCA1, mais ne les élimine pas.
La Dre Hannah Garner étudie pourquoi, grâce à une subvention de 525 000 dollars de l’IRTF, et comment utiliser le système immunitaire pour les combattre.

The immune system detects BRCA1-related cancers but doesn't stop them. Dr. Hannah Garner is working to understand why.
With $525,000 in TFRI support, her team will study why the immune system won't kill these cancers and how it can be used against them.
