Research Project into Transdermal Therapy

The Society is proud to announce we have established a Scholarship at the Griffith University to fund a student, dedicated to exploring the use of “Transdermal Therapy” in the management of Mesothelioma. The scholarship, called “The Douglas Francis Green” research scholarship, is named after Mr Douglas Green who left a substantial amount of his estate for research into Mesothelioma.

This research is to run for three years to allow a student to dedicate their time to this experimental program, which has the potential to revolutionize the management of Mesothelioma.
