ust in case you missed it, Cancer Research Institute (CRI) posted all 5 of its Breakthroughs in Cancer Immunotherapy Webinars for Cancer Immunotherapy Month™ on YouTube. Each 45-minute, free online webinar was hosted by an expert in cancer immunotherapy who discussed the latest updates in immune-based cancer treatments and what is to come. Audience members, which included patients, caregivers, research scientists, and health care professionals, had a chance to ask their questions—from basic research to clinical outcome—regarding various therapeutic approaches, across many different types of cancer.
