About us

Our mission

Our mission is to facilitate world-leading bench-to-bedside research in cancer prevention, early detection, and cutting edge treatments for solid tumours and haematological malignancies. This will be underpinned by a strong focus on translational research studies, and delivered via patient-centred approaches to transform outcomes for patients with cancer or at risk of cancer.
