May 11, 2022Malaysian scientists have significantly contributed to effective early cancer detection and advancing personalised cancer treatment. Their significance discoveries is a result of years of fundamental research and observations.
To maintain the pace of cancer-related research, the National Cancer Council (MAKNA) has tremendously encouraged Malaysian young researchers for the past 21 years with a funding opportunity called MAKNA Cancer Research Award (MCRA). As a strategic partner for this award, ASM has lent its Expert Network as Vetting Panel during the MCRA selection process. Besides identifying and connecting the experts, ASM also provides an online application platform through the ASM Awards and Recognition System and Database to accept MCRA applications.
Partnering with MAKNA has given ASM the capability to explore cancer research in relation to the three national STIE niche areas: digital health, precision medicine, and clinical trial hub for developing countries. The three niche areas are identified under the medical and healthcare of socio-economic drivers in the 10-10 MySTIE framework. The research awarded by MAKNA will not only lead the young researchers towards great value propositions in making their scientific breakthroughs, but their findings will also align with the national STIE agendas.
