PROJECT SUMMARY
"The Faculty of Medical and Health Sciences are very pleased to be working with The Breast Cancer Research Trust in partnership to address the issues surrounding breast cancer and its treatment so that together we can bring about a better outcome for the thousands of women facing breast cancer each year. The Faculty of Medical and Health Sciences at The University of Auckland is using support from the Trust to push the frontiers of knowledge further and develop new and improved methods of understanding and treating breast cancer for the benefit of women in Auckland, New Zealand, and the world.
There are many new and exciting opportunities that can be developed and we hope that some of these initiatives will come to fruition over the next year in a way that will ensure that Auckland is at the forefront of developments in understanding, preventing, diagnosing and treating breast cancer".
