As we welcome the new year, we reflect on progress in lung cancer research and treatments made last year and look ahead to more exciting advancements. Recent developments, including new programs, approvals, policies, events, and support initiatives, bring renewed hope to those affected by all types and stages of lung cancer.
During the December 17, 2024 Lung Cancer Living Room®, we highlighted some of the past year’s achievements and shared our goals for the year ahead.
From all of us at GO2, we wish you and your loved ones a happy new year!
