Words on screen: This Daffodil Month, Dr Pugh continues to advance cancer breakthroughs

Dr Pugh: My name is Dr Trevor Pugh. I'm a Canadian Cancer Society-funded researcher.

Words on screen: DR TREVOR PUGH, Cancer researcher

Dr Pugh: Research is all about hope. It's really all about posing a unique question and trying to answer it. You have to be optimistic[…]. You don't know whether your question is going to be right or wrong, and that's why we're doing research just so we can learn more about cancer and ultimately develop new detection strategies and better treatment.

Dr Pugh: This research has the potential to transform cancer care by enabling detection of cancer early, but also by providing tests that anyone in Canada can access.

Dr Pugh: The funding from the Canadian Cancer Society has allowed us to take on the most ambitious project the lab has ever contemplated. We're taking our work in basic research and now applying it to guide the early detection of cancer in patients across the country.

Dr Pugh: It takes all of us to take on cancer because you need scientists and patients and physicians all working together and bringing their unique expertise. To find cancer early, but also to do something about it once cancer has been found.

Dr Pugh: I think there's tremendous hope for cancer treatment in the future. Finding it early and having precision strategy to take out those cancers really is going to be the future for getting rid of this disease.

*Undesignated donations matched up to a total of $170,000. Monthly research donations above $25 per month will be matched for an entire year, up to a total of $200,000.
 
Matching donations come from corporate, institutional and individual donors who agree to match donations to specific programs, in order to inspire others to give. Donors may also require CCS to raise matching funds as a condition of their support. In both cases, these matches allow for an even greater impact. For more information about matching, and our partners, please visit cancer.ca/matching. Your donation will support cancer research and compassionate support programs. In the event the donations raised exceed the total funding need, CCS will redirect funds to where needed the most.
