To mark the 12th anniversary of the collaboration between ghd and the FERO Foundation, the hair styling tool brand is launching a new limited and charitable collection called ghd Pink 2023. This new collection is part of the ‘Take control now’ campaign, through which ghd will continue to raise funds to boost breast cancer research in Spain. <\/p>\n\n
Ghd has been collaborating with the FERO Foundation since 2011 and has raised over \u20ac1.5 million for translational oncology research projects. These funds have supported new researchers in establishing their laboratories by financing five FERO-ghd breast cancer research projects, ‘Start-up Grants’, and part of the Advanced Molecular Diagnostics Program (DIAMAV)<\/a> at the Vall d\u2019Hebron Institute of Oncology (VHIO). <\/p>\n\n Additionally, it has enabled the funding of more than 10 projects at VHIO with different approaches to better understand the disease. This has facilitated the creation of an excellent infrastructure in Spain to conduct research with greater impact and help more breast cancer patients. <\/p>\n\n Project led by Dr. Violeta Serra and Dr. Judith Balma\u00f1a at the Vall d\u2019Hebron Institute of Oncology (VHIO). Its objective is to verify whether liquid biopsy is useful for optimizing a test that identifies the most sensitive tumors and monitors treatment response in breast cancer patients carrying a BRCA1\/2 gene mutation. <\/p>\n\n Project led by Dr. Cristina Saura and Dr. Miriam Sans\u00f3, researchers at the Vall d\u2019Hebron Institute of Oncology (VHIO) and the Balearic Islands Health Research Institute Foundation (IdiSBa). Its aim is to validate the use of breast milk for the early detection of pregnancy-associated breast cancer to improve its current prognosis. <\/p>\n\n Project led by Dr. Ver\u00f3nica Rodilla, from the Josep Carreras Research Institute. Its objective is to identify reliable biomarkers for three types of mammary epithelial cells, so that, based on this, more patients can be considered ‘eligible’ for targeted therapies. <\/p>\n\n Project led by Dr. Jos\u00e9 Antonio Seoane at the Vall d\u2019Hebron Institute of Oncology (VHIO). It seeks to characterize epigenetic profiles to predict relapse after hormonal treatment in breast cancer. <\/p>\n\n Project led by Dr. Mariona Graupera, from the Josep Carreras Institute in Barcelona. Its objective is to understand how cancer cells instruct normal cells around them to work to their benefit and to discover new therapeutic targets. <\/p>\n\n The new ghd collection, in collaboration with the FERO Foundation, is presented under the name ‘Take control now’, a claim that serves to remind us of the importance of breast self-examination to prevent breast cancer and\/or detect it at an early stage. You can see how to self-examine step-by-step, here<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n To further raise awareness about the importance of self-examination for early diagnosis, the real story of Becksy Silverwood, a professional dancer who was diagnosed with breast cancer at 29, is explained.<\/p>\n\n JTNDdmlkZW8lMjBjb250cm9scyUzRCUyMiUyMiUyMGNsYXNzJTNEJTIydmlkZW8tY29tcG9uZW50JTIwdmlkZW8tYmFubmVyLXZpZGVvJTIyJTIwcHJlbG9hZCUzRCUyMm1ldGFkYXRhJTIyJTIwd2lkdGglM0QlMjIxMDAlMjUlMjIlM0UlM0Nzb3VyY2UlMjBzcmMlM0QlMjJodHRwcyUzQSUyRiUyRm1lZGlhLmdoZGhhaXIuY29tJTJGdmlkZW9zJTJGY29udGVudCUyRlBpbmsyM19JbnRlcnZpZXdfVmlkZW9fRVMubXA0JTNGdiUzRDE2ODc5NTg0NTQzNDglMjN0JTNEwLjElMjIlMjB0eXBlJTNEJTIydmlkZW8lMkZtcDQlMjIlM0UlM0MlMkZ2aWRlbyUzRQ==<\/p>\n\n Thanks to brands like ghd, today we are closer to the eradication of breast cancer.
