Funding bold ideas in cancer research since 1954

The Cancer Research Foundation supports early-career scientists with innovative ideas that could change everything about how we treat and cure cancer. These projects are often too new to qualify for traditional funding. That’s where we come in: our grants provide the support to generate the data that leads to larger studies and, eventually, life-saving treatments.

In the last 70 years, we’ve funded over 180 scientists. Learn more about them here.
