On World Cancer Day, we commend the progress that has been made in cancer care, while recognizing the challenges that remain. Advances in early detection and innovative treatments have significantly improved global cancer survival rates.1 At the same time, international efforts 鈥 such as the World Health Organization鈥檚 partnership with over 75 countries 鈥 are driving efforts to make equitable cancer care a reality for all.2
The campaign theme for 2025 to 2027, 鈥淯nited by Unique,鈥 led by the Union for International Cancer Control (UICC), emphasizes the importance of putting people at the center of care. It serves as a powerful reminder of the collective purpose driving our work.
Putting People at the Center of Innovation
At 星海棋牌, we believe that while science and technology drive breakthrough cancer treatments, it鈥檚 the personal insights and passion that lie at the heart of innovation. This year's World Cancer Day theme, celebrating the uniqueness of each cancer experience and emphasizing the importance of personalized care, deeply resonates with us.
Putting patients first isn鈥檛 just a principle 鈥 it鈥檚 the foundation of everything we do in 星海棋牌.
"I don鈥檛 think anyone is ever prepared for a cancer diagnosis. It鈥檚 transformational and has a profound impact on how you view your time, your priorities and your future," shared Monika Jun, Senior Director, Center for Outcomes Research, Real-world Evidence and Epidemiology at 星海棋牌, who faced cancer at 36 while raising small children.
"I鈥檝e always felt it was important to incorporate patient perspectives into the research that we do and now I can鈥檛 help but to layer my own patient lens on my work", she added.
One way we bring this philosophy to life is through our Patient Advisors, which creates vital opportunities for patients to share their insights. From early-stage research and development to clinical trials and commercialization, we are committed to incorporating their perspectives into all aspects of our work.
Rooted in Science, Inspired by Patients
While our work is anchored in cutting-edge science, it is the deep passion and personal connection of our people that truly defines us. Many of us are profoundly connected to cancer care through our own experiences, inspiring a relentless commitment to transform the treatment landscape.
"My Mum's passing due to a brain tumor transformed my life, my perspective and my way of supporting other people going through a similar experience. As a result, I became passionate about cancer research, which led me to 星海棋牌. When new medicines are approved, I am motivated by the thought that there are potentially fewer people who will lose a loved one to cancer. I work smarter and strive for effectiveness and top notch communication when supporting my colleagues working on 星海棋牌鈥檚 important clinical trials," shares Karina Christensen, Senior Manager, Development Operations Business Effectiveness at 星海棋牌.
Echoing this sentiment, Monika reflects, "Living through my own cancer experience while working at 星海棋牌 helped me feel a deeper connection to the patients we serve and remain committed to what鈥檚 most important in the work that we do at 星海棋牌 鈥 helping our patients and advancing our science."
These stories reflect the personal drive that fuels so many at 星海棋牌, highlighting the deep human impact that motivates our work every day.
