The Norwegian Cancer Society distributes NOK 183 mill NOK to 24 researchers

A total of just under NOK 183 million is now being distributed among 24 researchers, 13 of whom are affiliated to Oslo University Hospital. They were selected after independent international experts had assessed a total of 146 applications.
After the all-time fundraising record in the Pink Ribbon Campaign, more researchers than ever are receiving millions in support for vital work against breast cancer.  "Thanks to all the contributions from private individuals and businesses, from the hundreds of thousands who bought and wore the pink ribbon last year, we can now distribute a total of 47 million kroner to six outstanding breast cancer researchers", says Secretary General of the Norwegian Cancer Society, Ingrid Stenstadvold Ross.
