Inspired by children suffering from brain cancer, Project Violet is powered by people. By adopting a drug candidate, you will help change the way the Optides research team at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center [FHCRC] discover new drugs, advance science, find cures and save lives. The mission is to develop more effective and less toxic drugs for diseases that are currently considered incurable. This can be done by using blueprints from nature’s mini protein drugs and to do so in the non-profit space where these efforts will help patients for decades.
