To mark World Ovarian Cancer Day, on May 8, Sapienza is taking part in the ‘L’Italia si illumina di tiffany’ event, lighting up our Main Campus' main buildings in the colour that symbolises awareness of this disease.The campaign aims to raise public awareness of ovarian cancer, one of the most insidious gynaecological cancers, which is often diagnosed at an advanced stage due to the non-specific nature of its symptoms. Through this symbolic gesture, the aim is to promote awareness, highlight the importance of early diagnosis, and provide support for patients and their families. The initiative is organised by Associazione A.P.S. E.T.S. ALTo, Lotta al Tumore Ovarico Founded on March 6, 2023 by a group of patients suffering from high-grade serous ovarian cancer, the association aims to represent and protect the right to treatment for people with the disease. It seeks to reduce mortality by supporting scientific research and raising public awareness.
