Pancreatic cancer & uses of the Pat Smullen Fund

Prof Austin Duffy explains the nature of pancreatic cancer and the particular challenges of treating it - and how a new study (PATCH) hopes to address some of these challenges, thanks to the Pat Smullen Fund. He is followed by Anna Shevlin of Cancer Trials Ireland, who outlines the other ways that the Pat Smullen Fund has contributed to pancreatic cancer studies.
