About our research

We have a long and distinguished history of research spanning more than half a century. We have funded researchers who have made a number of major breakthroughs, helping to develop new cancer drugs and treatment methods, as well as better ways to diagnose and prevent cancer.

The research we fund is working to help prevent cancer in the first place, as well as investigating how cancers form and develop new drugs for some of the hardest to treat cancers. Our research all looks at how to improve the lives of people throughout their cancer journey, particularly projects which have real and lasting impact.

As part of being a member of the AMRC, we follow good practice guidelines covering the five principles of peer review: accountability, balance, independence, rotation and impartiality.
