Help improve outcomes for skin cancer patients
In 2022, around 17,756 people were diagnosed with melanoma in Australia.
Cure Cancer has funded 46 melanoma cancer researchers so far, but 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 makes a real difference to our mission. Together, let’s make this the last generation to die from skin cancer.
"The grant funding gives me the means to keep striving towards my ultimate goal of making a tangible impact on this devastating disease, which desperately needs unique research.
I feel extremely grateful for the grant because it allows me to pursue a career I’m passionate about, gives me the professional assistance needed to move forward, and the personal confidence that my research is important and worthy of study."
— Dr Kelly Brooks. a 2021 Cure Cancer grant recipient
