      People like Dr. Zhang need and deserve all the funding they can get. $1 million dollars is nice but not enough.Breast cancer is still touching many lives and early detection & removal increases survival chances. Dr. Zhangs research and technology may help save many lives.

      Awesome. Hope this works. Both my mother and my wife are survivors of this disease.
