We worked with our winners to produce case studies, based on the winning entries. We created and posted videos based on each of our three award winners to share their amazing work. We heard from Sir Ian Diamond, Dr. Gurdeep S. Mannu (Oxford University) and Dr. Anbalakan Paramasivam (Cancer Research UK) to learn how new insight on invasive breast cancer and breast cancer mortality after ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) in women will have important implications on policy and national guidelines.
