“Cancer does not discriminate. We cannot allow scientific progress to become a source of social inequality.” A powerful message from Her Majesty Queen Letizia of Spain at yesterday's #WorldCancerResearchDay event. Access to innovation must benefit all patients. #CancerResearch
La Reina, en el acto internacional del #WorldCancerResearchDay 🗨️ El cáncer no discrimina; no le importa dónde nacemos, dónde vivimos o con qué recursos contamos. No podemos permitir que el progreso científico se convierta en una fuente de desigualdad social.
