Cancer ranks as the number one cause of death in our state. Fighting this disease is costly, and requires dedicated support to launch even the most modest research or treatment programs. Behind many of these efforts is Maine Cancer Foundation, a statewide source of cancer grant funding.
Dr. Kevin Mills, PhD, cancer researcher at The Jackson Laboratory and board member of Maine Cancer Foundation will describe the journey of his new leukemia treatment venture, Cyteir Therapeutics Inc., from initial grant funding to commercial launch.
Tara Hill, Executive Director of MCF will give an overview about the unique opportunity corporate sponsorship presents for the business community, bringing jobs, talent, federal funding and improved health to the state of Maine.
