Help improve outcomes for lung cancer patients
It is estimated that 14,529 cases of lung cancer were diagnosed in Australia in 2022.
Cure Cancer has funded 5 lung cancer researchers so far, and more research is desperately needed. Supporting the brightest emerging researchers with innovative ideas gives us the best possible chance of finding a cure.
Every dollar you donate can make a real difference to our mission. Together, we can cure cancer.
"I am inspired everyday by my patients, who whilst undergoing sometimes toxic therapies for incurable disease, donate their time, tissue and ideas to research to help patients like them. It is for them that I do the research.
"These grants are incredibly important, allowing me to fund my salary and use other funds awarded for this work for considerable sequencing costs."
— Dr Venessa Chin, 2022 Cure Cancer grant recipient
