A first-ever Canadian study of early stage cervical cancer has shown that there is a higher rate of death & recurrence in patients who had minimally invasive surgery compared to those who had traditional open surgery for a radical hysterectomy. More @UHN: ow.ly/a3sp50wfoKP

Marell Tomeh has been a patient at @pmcancercentre for several years battling #leukemia & earlier this year she finally found a #stemcell donor. We kept in touch over the past few months & were very excited when she surpassed 100 days since her transplant earlier this month.👏

Barbara Dunlop-Mohammad had purchased a @PMLotto ticket, even before she received a surgeon-driven robotic #hysterectomy to treat her Stage 1 #endometrialcancer at @pmcancercentre. She wanted to support #cancerresearch at this world-class facility & hopes others will do the same.

Dr. Girish Kulkarni uses a surgical system called the da Vinci robot, which allows his team to operate in a minimally invasive manner. Like so much of the groundbreaking research happening at @pmcancercentre, the robot's funding comes from philanthropy. Thank you to our donors!

We are transforming care through personalized medicine. This incredible research into epigenetics - the way genes are expressed to give us particular traits - has an important role to play in the outcomes of different types of cancer and the success of different therapies
Princess Margaret Cancer Centre@pmcancercentre

Dr. Daniel De Carvalho & team have published important research about how genes involved in the extracellular matrix are affected by cancer. This work contributes to our understanding of how to further personalize treatment for patients based on their genetic or molecular profile
