Our vision is to make this the last generation to die from cancer, and only cancer research can achieve this.
About us
Over the past 56 years, Cure Cancer has raised over $89m to support lifesaving research across all cancer types. We’ve funded 540 research grants to young researchers with fresh, innovative ideas, and seen many go on to become leaders in cancer research globally. We won’t cure cancer without research. Our vision is to make this the last generation to die from cancer. WHY YOUNG RESEARCHERS? In today's research environment, funding is incredibly tight, meaning research grants are few and far between. The majority are awarded to scientists who have a proven track record of results, so very few grants are available to young researchers. This has led to potentially lifesaving research from incredibly talented young minds going unexplored. We’re here to change that. Since 1967, we’ve assembled a collective force of brilliant emerging researchers who offer pioneering approaches to overcome cancer in all its forms. By identifying, assessing and funding research at a time when ideas burn brightest, we have the best chance of achieving our mission to cure cancer for good. WHY DO WE FUND RESEARCH INTO ALL CANCER TYPES? Cancer doesn’t discriminate, which is why Cure Cancer funds crucial research from bright young scientists working across all cancer types. 9.6 million people die from cancer every year worldwide, so we don’t pick and choose the cancers we fight. Our collective team of passionate researchers, donors, fundraisers and partners take on all cancers, including the rarest types. Together we can find a cure for cancer.

We're excited to introduce, Dr Kellie Mouchemore, one of our grant recipients for 2024. ✨ Join us for an exclusive information session with Kellie, an emerging breast cancer researcher based at Olivia Newton-John Cancer Research Institute . 🧬 Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC) is a type of breast cancer that does not have the usual markers found on other breast cancer cells. This makes it harder to treat because common treatments target these markers. Chemotherapy is often used but isn't as effective for advanced TNBC, leading to higher death rates. There's a high risk of the cancer coming back within the first three years after treatment, and most deaths occur within the first five years. Therefore, new, effective treatments are urgently needed. We're hosting the virtual session on Zoom on Thursday 24 October at 12.30pm AEDT so register to join the conversation: https://lnkd.in/gUVKfwYg https://lnkd.in/gH-xqfqR #CancerResearch #WeCanCureCancer #BreastCancer #VirtualEvent
