Knowledge is only of value when shared and applied, and since the spirit of the MAD DAWN Challenge project is that of sharing and helping, we have made the newest addition to our impact-oriented online presence.

Quality of treatment is also to be improved. The current chemotherapy is so heavy and aggressive that children treated today can get some organ defects later in life and other complications.
