Congratulations to Dr. Lin Yang who has received a grant from the Canadian Cancer Society for her study entitled: “Participating in Tai Chi to Reduce Anxiety and Keep up Physical Function: Implementing a Prehabilitation Intervention for Radical Prostatectomy”. Her grant was ranked #1 in this competition that was focused on implementation grants in the area of prostate cancer and only 3 of 13 grants in this competition were funded. This achievement is noteworthy given the highly competitive environment for funding and the fact that several competitions from the Canadian Cancer Society have been cancelled completely because of COVID-19. Lin has worked diligently on this project idea and has established outstanding collaborations with clinicians, other scientists, prostate cancer survivors and their partners and other health care professionals for this project.
