CANCER WALK RECRUITMENT
Advancing Cancer Awareness and Research
The Marcelle Ruth Cancer Centre (MRCC) Research and Development Department successfully conducted its first public recruitment during the MRCC Cancer Awareness Walk event on February 7, 2025.
As part of our ongoing commitment to cancer awareness and groundbreaking research, we were honored to welcome participants, volunteers, and supporters at the MRCC Cancer Awareness Walk.
Our recruitment process was seamlessly integrated into the event, featuring engaging educational sessions that spotlighted our mission, research goals, and opportunities for participation. This resulted in the successful recruitment of 29 participants into our ongoing research projects, further expanding our efforts to build a robust foundation for cancer research in Africa.
Overall, this event reinforced the need for African-driven data to strengthen cancer studies and improve healthcare outcomes. We are grateful to everyone who contributed to this initiative, and we remain committed to driving impactful research that transforms cancer care across the continent.
IN-HOUSE RECRUITMENT
Strengthening Cancer Research and Community Healthcare
The Marcelle Ruth Research and Development department successfully recruited interested participants during a free mammogram initiative conducted in collaboration with the Ibironke Solomon Foundation and the Marcelle Ruth Foundation.
This initiative featuring an education session with the participants reinforces our dedication to strengthening the foundation for impactful cancer studies and ensuring that essential healthcare services reach the communities MRCC serves.
Through research-driven initiatives like this, we continue to bridge the gap between clinical care and evidence-based research, paving the way for more effective cancer prevention, diagnosis, and treatment strategies.
