The Cura Talks event takes place in São Paulo and will enlighten patients, NGOs and companies about Research and Cancer

On March 31, 2023, the Cura Project Institute will hold another proprietary event, the 1st Cura Talks. Under the theme “What You Should Know About Research and Cancer: Challenges and Opportunities”, O Cura Talks aims to promote knowledge and awareness about research that seeks a cure for cancer, as well as to engage patients, NGOs and companies to the cause.

Since its founding, Instituto Proyecto Cura has been holding social and corporate events to promote society's awareness, funding, and engagement in favor of research that seeks a cure for cancer.

Cura Talks, which has the support of LACOG - Latin American Cooperative Oncology Group -, will feature lectures by medical oncologists and other renowned specialized professionals in the field of research, who will share relevant and important information on the topic. For the opening of the event, which will address “Magnitude of cancer patient care”, we will have the important name of Dr. William William, a leading physician in clinical oncology, member of the Scientific Committee of the Cura Project Institute, Associate Adjunct Professor at the MD Anderson Cancer Center, Coordinator of the Thoracic Tumors Committee of the SBOC (Brazilian Society of Clinical Oncology) and President of the Head and Neck Cancer chapter of LACOG.

The first edition of Cura Talks will take place in a hybrid form, with a live broadcast and, subsequently, the conferences will be available on the digital platforms of the Cura Project Institute, so that this very important issue can be broadened and informed to more patients, support networks, other doctors and various supporters of the cause.
