Our story
The Symphony of Us is the outcome of an extensive exploration of the cancer research system. This involved discussions with lots of stakeholders, including patients, health care providers, researchers, investors and policymakers.
"As a cancer patient, I won a battle… but the war continues. I believe you only heal from cancer the day you die from something else."
Guided by enthusiastic researchers
The heart of The Symphony of Us is a strong team of academic researchers from different fields. Over the next two years, they will work together transdisciplinary while keeping the current social context in mind.
