The Standup 2 Cancer benefit will screen on US TV and YouTube on 7 September (US) and 8 September (Aust / NZ). This is the third benefit for the organisation that is fighting to build build public support for groundbreaking translational research accelerating the delivery of new therapies to patients, getting them from the "bench to the bedside" as quickly as possible. SU2C brings together scientists from different disciplines across various institutions to collaborate.

As many of you know, we lost Andy Whitfield on 11 September 2011 from Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma. Lucy Lawless, Starz and Be Here Now (the Andy Whitfield documentary) combined to lend their support for the event.
