I mentioned in a previous entry that pediatric cancer (and pediatric brain cancer in particular) receives very limited research and funding. I don't know if it's just that I am more aware now, or if St. Jude has greatly increased their marketing push because I am seeing many more TV commercials and billboard ads increasing the visibility of these diseases. And now, they will be reaching out to the Hispanic community with a radiothon.
