MEMBER HIGHLIGHT:
NADIA VALSECCHI FOUNDATION
Nadia Valsecchi Foundation is an Italian organization established in 2015 by the Valsecchi family in memory of Nadia, who lost her battle against pancreatic cancer in 2013. The first mission of the foundation is to support research by establishing scholarships for young investigators, which are leading promising science in pancreatic cancer. The second mission is to create awareness about the disease through the organization of national meetings, and the third mission is to support the needs of patients during their journey.
