Prof Theresa Wiseman - Royal Marsden Hospital, London, UK

Prof Theresa Wiseman speaks to ecancer at CCLMIC 2019 about two of the the global challenge research fund projects.

She outlines the two projects involved, and explains how her 'recovery care package' was integrated into these at the end of the patients' treatment.

Hopefully these projects could be expanded and rolled out on a national level.
