This year's funds will be distributed among 31 different projects and 35 researchers who applied. Out of the SEK 18 million, 1.9 million will be allocated for “researcher months for clinicians.” These funds aim to facilitate clinicians in focusing on their research activities.
Generous contributors have made it possible for the Jubilee Clinic Cancer Foundation to support research at or in connection with the Jubilee Clinic at Sahlgrenska University Hospital.
The Jubilee Clinic is one of Sweden's largest cancer clinics, operating at Sahlgrenska, Östra Hospital, and Södra Älvsborg Hospital. Academic research and healthcare at the Jubilee Clinic are integral components of the Sahlgrenska Comprehensive Cancer Centre.
