In "From Test to Treatment: Real Stories Behind Genomic Access," CCRAN's Don Wood spoke with Corri Desaulniers and Jennifer Lovrics about what it actually takes to access comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) in Canada β from referrals and funding barriers to geography and timing.
It's a powerful preview of why our 2026 Pan-Tumour Biomarkers Conference focuses on access, equity and system readiness.
A heartfelt thank you to Corri and Jennifer for their openness and courage in sharing their stories β and to the organizations they're affiliated with, the Canadian Cholangiocarcinoma Collaborative (C3) and Pancreatic Cancer North America, for the vital support and advocacy they provide to patients and families.
