As science marches on, we here at the Cancer Research Foundation find it nearly impossible to read a project proposal without a thick medical dictionary nearby.  We are working on a glossary intended specifically for users of our website. Until that project is finished, here are some useful internet resources:

The Cancer Research Foundation has focused attention on cancer and raised money for life-giving research. We...pay tribute to the scientists who have dedicated themselves to finding a cure and to meet the young researchers who are the next generation of fighters against this disease. The message we send today is that those who suffer from cancer are not alone and that together we can work toward a solution."
