Developed with local input, UVM Cancer Center led the research and included 12 Vermont patients in the trial. Dr. Randall Holcombe calls it a major leap forward against this aggressive disease. The center’s mission? Bring cutting-edge care closer to home — especially for rural patients. Survivor Michael Kennedy credits UVMCC for letting him stay local, preserving his routine and support system during treatment. This win means hope and accessibility for patients across Vermont and Northern New York. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
