Example Impact
Our Research strategy is closely aligned with that of the Sussex Cancer Research Centre (SCRC). The central mission of the Sussex Cancer Research Centre (SCRC) is to produce groundbreaking interdisciplinary research that will enhance cancer treatments and patient outcomes. This mission is realised by combining the exceptional research strengths within Brighton and Sussex Medical School, the Universities of Brighton and Sussex, University Hospitals Sussex NHS Foundation Trust, and neighbouring hospitals. The SCRC brings together researchers, doctors, nurses, psychologists, professional services, and the community to shape the future of cancer research.
The SCRC is distinguished by its commitment to patient-centric research. This approach ensures that patients are at the heart of our research strategy and decision-making processes. By incorporating patients' perspectives, we can focus on the real-world impact of our work, from the lab bench to the bedside.
The SCRC’s unique interdisciplinary approach leverages Sussex's renowned strengths in targeted therapy research and patient-reported outcomes to deliver tangible benefits. By uniting these strengths within the SCRC, we maximise the potential for innovative and collaborative research that spans from basic science to clinical application.
The Sussex Cancer Fund are proud to support multiple research projects within the SCRC, and your donation may unlock the next breakthrough in cancer care right here in Sussex.
