Great Job UCI Oncoslayers!
The UCI Oncoslayers showed up in force at the 2018 Anti-Cancer
Challenge held at the Orange County Great Park. Over 30 team
members joined the 5K Run/Walk (May 19th).
After bake sales, T-shirt sales and donations to the team, the
Oncoslayers raised
over $4000, doubling their goal, and they’re not done yet. The
School of Medicine
Office of Graduate Studies “adopted” the team this year to add
support.
What’s next? The Oncoslayers are auctioning 17 extraordinary
reproductions of juried images of cells, tissue, neurons, vessels,
etc. shot by UCI researchers and printed onto wood by Woodsnap. The
CRI art for auction is on display through May in the Sprague Hall
Atrium.

The Oncoslayers continue their efforts alongside the Anti-Cancer
Challenge to raise
funds for cancer research. The scientists at the UCI Cancer
Research Institute (CRI) work
to better understand how cancer starts and grows because cancer
isn't a simple
disease. Not only do cancer cells look like regular cells and
hide from the body’s
normal defenses, but every type of cancer is unique. Because
cancer presents complex
challenges, it is important to keep research going on all the
different types of cancers.
