FORCE – Sweden joins new European research initiative for hard-to-treat and rare cancers
The international cancer research initiative FORCE will open its first call for proposals this summer. The focus is on hard-to-treat cancers and rare cancer diseases, where mortality rates remain high. The hope is that cross-border collaboration will provide a sufficient patient base for studies that can lead to better treatments.
Here, Kerstin Sollerbrant from the Swedish Childhood Cancer Fund (Barncancerfonden) and Annina Graan from the Swedish Cancer Society (Cancerfonden) explain the FORCE initiative.
