Rethinking Cancer: Realising the potential for improved survival
In December Barbara attended a parliamentary round table discussion hosted by Bristol-Myers Squibb (BMS). The meeting brought together Parliamentarians, policy experts and patient groups to consider the implications for patients, employers, the economy and society at large.
The event followed a recent report supported by BMS and prepared by the International Longevity Centre – UK (ILC-UK). In Rethinking Cancer the ILC-UK presented findings on how outcomes for cancer patients can be improved, exploring the challenges facing those living with and beyond cancer at home and in the workplace.
