As many of you know, each year, Fred Hutch hosts its annual cancer fundraiser, [Obliteride](https://www.obliteride.org/?utm_source=googlepaid&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=obliteride2026&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=23740069576&gbraid=0AAAAA9hkoohiC3YV4a8ZmYtxFrTMJ_F1l&gclid=Cj0KCQjwo_PRBhDNARIsAEcVALVNg_Cv3F-WFWTg2Xx3j8OiudB5R5BXgFNEc64oew49WWVq0w0UMIYaArZqEALw_wcB). Biil and I are going to do the 50 mile-ride and we would love it if you joined us. We created a team called **Pedal Partners** and designated the **Gujral Lab at Fred Hutch** as the recipient of the funds we raise. All of us know people dear to us that have had cancer or are living with cancer. My sister was diagnosed with a rare and very aggressive form of ovarian cancer called Ovarian Clear Cell Carcinoma (OCCC). Because OCCC is so uncommon, research funding is extremely limited. There are relatively few patients and tumor samples available for study, making it difficult to conduct research and draw meaningful conclusions. As a result, progress in developing better treatments has been frustratingly slow. The Gujral Lab is launching a promising new study that will include patients with OCCC. **If you would like to help, please consider joining our team or making a donation:** **[https://secure.fredhutch.org/site/TR?team_id=26707&pg=team&fr_id=2251](https://secure.fredhutch.org/site/TR?team_id=26707&pg=team&fr_id=2251)** You can, of course, designate the funds you raise or donations you make to any other Fred Hutch lab or area of cancer research. Virtual participation is available, so you do not need to be in Seattle to join, and virtual participants have no fundraising minimum. However, we would really enjoy your company when we do this ride. To help maximize the impact of every contribution, **Bill and I will match donations made through the team for the Gujral Lab, dollar for dollar, up to at least** **$10,000**. Thank you for considering supporting cancer research.
