We want to create a research community where everyone has the opportunity to excel. At the moment, this isn’t always the case – Black researchers are underrepresented in #STEM and as of last year, make up just 1% of our grant applications. To try and tackle this issue, we’re running our #BlackLeadersinCancer PhD scholarship again this year, in partnership with Black in Cancer and Windsor Fellowship. We’re thrilled to be able to extend this programme to all CRUK centres so that more students from Black heritage backgrounds will be provided a four-year fully funded PhD in #CancerResearch. Successful applicants will have the chance to study at any CRUK centre from September 2025. They’ll also receive mentoring and wraparound support throughout their PhD.
