Dear all,
I'm hosting a public event on CRUK's new Grand Challenge project (cruk.org/grandchallenge) in Manchester next week. Would be great if people could share the event with their networks and also come along if you're interested!
How would you use £20m to beat cancer sooner?
When: Thursday 22nd October, 7pm
Where: Manchester Art Gallery

The Grand Challenge is Cancer Research UK's 'X Prize', an unprecedented pot of funding available to break down the barriers that stand in the way of progress to beat cancer sooner. Hear from the Grand Challenge team and the people who have helped to choose the science that needs the money most. Explore these areas through hands on activities supported by University of Manchester scientists, before an interactive debate on whether everyone should have a say in how CRUK spends its money. One in two of us will develop cancer in our lifetime. Is research funding best left to the experts, or should this be a democratic process? Join us and have your say.
Best wishes,
Tamsin
