2025 is set to be the biggest year ever in WOTSO’s long association with the Better Challenge, the major fundraiser for The Kids' Cancer Project, which supports vital scientific research into better treatments for children with cancer.
The translational research pipeline may sound like a complicated concept, but it's essential in taking ideas from a lab into the everyday lives of kids with cancer.
The Kids’ Cancer Project is delighted to confirm it has been named as the official charity partner of the City of Sydney’s Sydney Lunar Festival, giving the charity a lofty platform at high profile events to advocate for childhood cancer research.
As part of Sarcoma Awareness Month, we’ve shone a light on several past projects we’ve funded in a bid to find more effective, less harmful treatments for kids with sarcoma.
Col Reynolds Fellow, Dr Karin Plummer, has had an editorial article published within the Journal of Pediatric Nursing, detailing her research and the utilisation of digital technology in delivering safer, more effective care for kids with cancer.
Responsible for approximately 20% of all childhood cancers, sarcoma is a disease that remains difficult to treat. Evidenced by no change in five-year survival rates (75%) in decades, the need to find more effective treatments is at a critical juncture.
