International Reach
International collaboration and the exchange of knowledge play a crucial role in the advancement of translational research into innovative treatment options. Snowdome has collaborated with the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) in the United States and the Leukaemia Foundation in Australia to drive forward ground-breaking blood cancer research via the LLS Translational Research Program. The program focuses on accelerating research that shows significant potential of translating into new clinical applications.
Now into its fifth year, the collaboration between our organisations has resulted in the funding of ten Australian research projects, worth a total of AUD $9 million.
