Cancer Research UK and American Association for Cancer Research

Cancer Research UK (CRUK) is the largest independent funder of cancer research in Europe and the world’s leading charity dedicated to cancer research. Our vision is to bring forward the day when all cancers are cured.

We fund high-calibre, innovative research that we believe has the potential to provide the greatest benefit to the public and cancer patients. We work in partnership to achieve the greatest impact. We invest around £400m every year through funding schemes, initiatives and a UK-wide network of research infrastructure across basic, translational, clinical and population research.
