The Cancer Challenge
The earlier cancer is diagnosed, the greater
the chances of a cure. So why is only 20% of
cancer research funds spent on finding bet-
ter ways to detect the disease earlier?
The Cancer Challenge is to address that
problem face on: Identify better diagnostic
tools and convince the healthcare industry
to adopt them. Our Objective is to:
 Build a network of biomarker, sensor and oncology experts
 Identify and rank cancer diagnostic tools using an on-line innova-
ton platform
 Organise conferences to promote new diagnostic technology
 Promote earlier stage diagnostic tools to clinicians

“...thanks for taking on the cancer project. To beat that evil thing we are going
to need all the folks like you we can get. Those of us who are “survivors” are
very appreciative. May you never be touched by the Big C.
Warm regards, Don G.”
