CCTG is seeking an outstanding and visionary cancer trialist for the position of Senior Investigator (SI). Expertise in cancer clinical trial methods and conduct is required. Interest/expertise in investigational new drugs, symptom science/supportive care, patient reported outcomes, application of real world evidence and clinical trials is desirable but not required. As one of our Senior Investigators you will be co-principal investigator of individual trials, and leader within the CCTG program and the CCTG scientific committees.
Congratulations to Dr. Philippe Bedard who was recently honoured with the 17th annual Michaele C. Christian Oncology Drug Development Award at the NCI CTEP Early Drug Development Meeting.
Everyone at CCTG would like to congratulate Dr Frances Shepherd who was recently awarded the Lifetime Contribution Prize from the Canadian Cancer Society.
