The “Prix Legs Kanning” honours the scientific achievement of Luxembourgish researchers in cancer research. It is organised by the LIONS Clubs Luxembourg, which created in 1976 the “Action Vaincre le Cancer” in order to fight cancer by supporting cancer research, inform the public about cancer, as well as financially support patients with financial difficulties.
