You’ll also have the chance to engage in one-on-one conversations with UC Irvine Anti-Cancer Challenge Research Awardees about their projects and how your support accelerates discoveries at the UC Irvine Chao Family Comprehensive Cancer Center.
This event is free, open to the public and includes hosted parking. Parking is hosted for this event.
