Description

The aim of our project grant scheme is to support scientific excellence and innovative research into pancreatic cancer.While the understanding of the biology of pancreatic cancer has increased in recent years, overall survival rates remain abysmally low. Our aim is to improve patient survival chances and ultimately find cures.Given that early detection, diagnosis and successful treatment of pancreatic cancer are still major challenges, the charity is making these its priority areas for research funding. We're interested in innovative, high-quality studies to develop novel therapies and diagnostics. In particular, we're looking to support research with high potential translational impact and aimed at bringing new lab findings quickly to the clinic.
