iBB was happy to take part in the 2026 edition of “Mexer Contra o Cancro”, an initiative organized by the Liga Portuguesa Contra o Cancro at the Centro Desportivo Nacional do Jamor.
This event brought together science, health, sports, and the community with a shared mission: raising awareness about cancer prevention and supporting oncology research in Portugal.
Throughout the day, participants of all ages joined activities that promoted healthier lifestyles and highlighted the importance of scientific research in improving lives.
As part of this initiative, iBB had the opportunity to engage with the public, share the importance of biomedical research, and reinforce the role of science in addressing major health challenges such as cancer.
Thank you to everyone who contributed to this meaningful initiative and to the Liga Portuguesa Contra o Cancro for organizing an event that combines community, wellbeing, and science for a greater purpose.
A special THANK YOU to the iBB researchers who dedicated part of their Saturday to participate in this initiative and link with the community: Nuno Bernardes, Ana Rita Santos, Diogo Dias, Nuno Graça, Sebastião Pereira!
