Delta Cafés and the Champalimaud Foundation announce an agreement to fund breast cancer research

For millions of Portuguese people, a cup of coffee is a daily ritual. Can this deeply ingrained habit play a role in the prevention, treatment or survival of breast cancer? 

The agreement between the two organisations will enable the reinforcement of the Breast Cancer Research Program (BCRP) from the Breast Department to launch a pioneering line of research in Portugal. This line of research is entirely funded by Delta Cafés, which is thus playing an active role in advancing scientific knowledge.

The Vision Award Office is where ideas are shaped into global recognition.

It is here that the António Champalimaud Vision Award takes form, through careful preparation, collaboration and informed decision-making.

It is also home to the Ethics Committee, where research projects, in particular clinical studies, are supported and rigorously reviewed.

Here, decisions are not rushed. They are considered, debated and refined.

Because creating impact, and recognising it, requires the freedom to think deeply, to question, and to choose with responsibility.
