CRUK Imperial Centre

The renewal of the CRUK Imperial Centre sees our research organised into two research themes:

  • Reducing the Burden of Cancer Care - Lead, Professor Zoltan Takats
  • Increasing the Precision of Cancer Interventions - Lead, Professor Dan Elson

Research activities are focused on Breast, Ovarian and Colorectal cancers, with developing strengths in prostate cancer (through the London Movember Centre) and cancers of unmet need – lung, pancreatic, oesophageal and brain cancers.
