The Cancer Moonshot initiative is Joe Biden’s ultimate dream

As President Biden nears the end of his term in office, and his political career, he is fully committed to a project close to his heart: the fight against cancer.

Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden visited New Orleans to announce $150 million in grants to advance cancer research.

This financial support underlines their deep commitment to revolutionizing cancer treatments and reducing mortality.

This cause is particularly dear to the President, who lost his son Beau in 2015 to brain cancer…

…an event that deeply affected both the President and the First Lady.

These multi-million dollar grants for advanced cancer treatments are designed to boost research across the country, including at Tulane University, where the announcement was made.

Biden’s involvement in the Cancer Moonshot initiative was motivated not only by his personal family tragedy, but also by a sense of public duty, given that cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States.

He hopes to see cancer deaths halved over the next twenty-five years.

Joe Biden wants to see his commitment to the fight against cancer extend well beyond his term of office, stressing the importance of continuing to support advances in cancer treatment and research.
