This is very exciting and promising innovation for brain cancer.
What a story -- and why rare disease and cancer research is so important:
"Like most people, Paul Poth had never heard the word cholangiocarcinoma. As a healthy 38 year-old new father with no predisposing factors and no family history, it was a complete shock to be diagnosed with this rare cancer."
We always applaud young innovators and these two young women are sharp biotech entrepreneurs!
Congratulations to Katherine Brandenstein and Emily Willard, co-founders of Engage, who won first place at the University of Washington's first Health Innovation Challenge for SafeShot—a lid that attaches to multi-use vials, like ones that non-governmental organizations use to give vaccines, and sterilizes needles as they enter the vial.
Check out the other 18 cool contenders.
