AWARDS/ The Picchi Prize

 

THE PICCHI BROTHERS FOUNDATION FOR EXCELLENCE IN RESPIRATORY and CANCER RESEARCH

The Picchi Asthma Prize

The Picchi Brothers Foundation is chartered to support the activities of Asthma Research but limited to Victorian research only. As the Asthma collective is an all-Australian Association, it has become a challenge to seperate the great work of interstate researchers into asthma.

The Picchi Cancer Research Prize

In 2013, The Picchi Brothers Foundation began to generate awards each year as a Prize for students, Researchers, practitioners and the like who showed exemplary inroads into both Cancer and Asthma research. The Picchi Brothers VCCC Award for Excellence in Cancer Research was established to give those who follow the criteria in research, clinical studies and public health a hand-up to help them further with their research including marketing of the ideas along with meetings with peers, be it seminars, forums and international visitations. The prize is determined by Professors from participating research facilities who have a close eye on the developing areas.
