One out of every three women, and one out of every two men, will receive a cancer diagnosis in their lifetime. For these people and their families, time is the issue. At the UVA Cancer Center, we are leading the way in the fight against cancer. Your support will help UVA speed our search for faster ways to diagnose the disease and new, personalized treatments for cancer. |
