Research

We aim to tackle unmet needs in cancer by developing the next generation of technologies that will improve the prevention, detection, diagnosis and treatment of cancer. By taking a multidisciplinary approach we can bring together different research disciplines to accelerate the progress of new technologies to clinical implementation.

Increasing the precision of cancer treatment

Improving cancer therapies, our research focus on the biology of cancer, and the development of new and better cancer treatments

Reducing the burden of cancer

Investigating how to reduce the risk of developing cancer in the first place, and how we can detect and diagnose cancer earlier

Supporting translational research

Facilitating cancer research from guidance around study design, to specialised technology and resources access, and clinical trials support

Training the next generation of convergence scientists

At the heart of the CRUK Imperial Centre's convergence research strategy is a unique initiative to train the next generation of Convergence Scientists
