CancerCare Manitoba Research

Dr. Marshall Pitz, CMIO & Oncologist, joined the AI Summit: Beyond ChatGPT hosted by @BioscienceMB. The panel explored how AI is transforming cancer care — from early diagnosis to personalized treatment. Proud to see Dr. Pitz representing CCMB in shaping the future of care.

A new @NEJM study is reshaping colon cancer recovery. Regular, structured exercise after treatment reduced recurrence + improved survival. Proud to see Dr. Ralph Wong contribute to this pivotal research. Study: rb.gy/gw7ncg CBC News: rb.gy/ugw1i9

It's Research Day and we’re proud to welcome more than 30 students from @UM_RadyFHS as they present their cancer research projects. These young minds are helping shape the future of cancer care in our province.

The fact regular exercise (2.5 hours/week) helps prevent up to 40% of cancers is a good reason to stay fit. Get active to reduce your risk.
