The Future of Prostate Cancer Research and Policy

ZERO Advocates in a meeting inside a room in the Capitol

This session focuses on the Prostate Cancer Research Program, one of the biggest driving forces behind new and innovative prostate cancer research, and how you can get involved. Attendees will get an update on how ZERO is working to improve the lives of prostate cancer patients and their families all across the country. The session will focus on: 

  1. Determining the Future of PC Research
    We’ll be advocating for increased funding for the Prostate Cancer Research Program, but are you up to date on the latest on this important catalyst for new and innovative treatments and diagnostics? Hear directly from Dr. Melissa Cunningham, the director of the program, about the history and latest successes of the PCRP.
  2. How Can You Drive Prostate Cancer Research?
    Did you know you can help determine the next research projects funded by the PCRP? Hear from patients who have served as consumer reviewers for the PCRP grant program. Learn about the benefits of participation and how you can get involved.

This session was part of our VIRTUAL ZERO Prostate Cancer Summit, a free online event that took place from February 28 to March 4, 2021.
