Each year on the recommendation of the Scientific/Medical Advisory Committee and the Board of Directors, PSC Partners Seeking a Cure chooses the most promising research projects to support. In 2012, Dr. Tim Lankisch and Dr. Jochen Metzger – both from Hannover Germany –  received a two-year $60,000 grant to study improvements in detecting Cholangiocarcinoma (CC) using chemical markers in bile and urine . Read their final report indicating their successes in detecting CC with these markers.
