The 2017 Minnesota Cancer Alliance Summit was held on February 1st with Mayo Clinic well represented. The event served as an annual gathering of Minnesota’s cancer researchers, care providers, and patient advocates, as well as the platform for unveiling the new Minnesota Cancer Plan 2025, a statewide framework for action in reducing cancer burdens. Both OHDR and the Mayo Clinic Cancer Center were sponsors of the event and had promotional booths. Mayo staff, including Sumedha Penheiter, Ph.D. of OHDR, Jane Welter and Wendy Hanson of the Mayo Clinic Cancer Center, attended workshops on building tactics and grassroots support for implementing the new Cancer Plan objectives.
