Our research is driven by a powerful goal: to reduce the number of people diagnosed with gastrointestinal cancer and to save lives by reducing the number of deaths from these diseases.
To achieve this, we are leading a range of innovative research studies:
- We’re investigating the causes of gastrointestinal cancers to help everyone reduce their risk of cancer.
- We’re exploring how best to screen for bowel cancer with the aim of making screening more effective, efficient and acceptable.
- Finally, we’re looking for new strategies to monitor those at higher risk of bowel cancer.
Our work has already influenced national and international guidelines on bowel cancer screening and prevention, positively impacting patients around the world.
