Alexandria, Va. – The Prevent Cancer Foundation is pleased to announce six jointly funded technical transfer fellowships with the Union für Internationale Krebskontrolle (UICC). The training fellowships facilitate the international exchange of cancer control information, allowing health care professionals from around the world to learn new techniques and skills in the early detection and treatment of cancer at top research and cancer institutes. The majority of awarded fellows come from low- and middle-income countries.
Since 2015, the Prevent Cancer Foundation has partnered with UICC to support over 65 technical transfer fellowships. The UICC fellowships are supported by the FitzGerald family.
