Al's Comment:
The first grant is for the development of a new type of vaccine for the treatment of brain tumors. The second is a project to try to make it easier to find the correct clinical trials. It is not just a matching service - it is a system where clinical trials will be explained and reviewed so we have more information to go on when selecting a clinical trial!
