Since 1947, the Canadian Cancer Society Research Institute(formerly the National Cancer Institute of Canada [NCIC]) has supported thousands of researchers through the administration of more than $1 billion in cancer research funding. This funding was made possible because of the Canadian Cancer Society's longstanding commitment to research.... The CCSRI aims to become an even stronger voice in the cancer research community, strengthening links between researchers and the public and ultimately strengthening the Society's ability to attract increased donor dollars for research that will continue to make a difference in the lives of Canadians. 2, record 1, English, - Canadian%20Cancer%20Society%20Research%20Institute

Depuis 1947, l'Institut de recherche de la Société canadienne du cancer (anciennement l'Institut national du cancer du Canada [INCC]) soutient des milliers de chercheurs en administrant un budget de plus d'un milliard de dollars destiné au financement de la recherche sur le cancer. Ce financement a été rendu possible en raison de l'engagement de longue date de la Société canadienne du cancer envers la recherche. [...] L'IRSCC vise à élargir son influence dans le milieu de la recherche sur le cancer, ce qui renforcera les liens entre les chercheurs et le public et améliorera, en fin de compte, la capacité de la Société à recueillir plus de fonds de la part des donateurs pour continuer à améliorer de manière tangible la vie des Canadiens. 1, record 1, French, - Institut%20de%20recherche%20de%20la%20Soci%C3%A9t%C3%A9%20canadienne%20du%20cancer
