I am pleased to write this letter to say thank you for the financial support that you extended to me to attend the 12th annual meeting of the Middle-Eastern Association for Cancer Research (MEACR) in Qatar, in collaboration with the Société Marocaine de Cancérologie (SMCC) in Morocco.I would like to report my participation.

The MEACR, which was established as a nonprofit organization in 2009, aims to enhance the exchange between clinicians, cancer scientists, graduate students, and other health workers who deal with cancer patients in the larger Middle East (ME), including North Africa. Thus, in order to achieve this mission, the MEACR holds an annual meeting in a different ME country each year to provide equal opportunity for all cancer researchers across the region and help them build a collaborative base with various educational and research institutions.

As a Palestinian Medical Doctor and Researcher, I was grateful to attend the conference and to be one of the speakers, where I presented an oral presentation entitled, "Awareness of Palestinians about Lung Cancer Symptoms: Current Situation and Future Directions." In discussion with a large group of researchers and scientists from all over the world
It was a great opportunity and an honor for me to participate in it as the youngest researcher among them.

Finally, I would like to thank you again for your funding, which helped me to participate in this conference.
 
Best Regards,
Wafa Aqel, MD
