Cancer Research Society
The Cancer Research Society is a national not-for-profit organization whose sole mission is to fund research on all types of cancer, thereby contributing to the advancement of science aimed at preventing, detecting, and treating this disease.
The Cancer Research Society supports the best Canadian researchers in hospitals and universities across Canada. Over the past 15 years, the society has invested 119,1 million dollarsin research and has funded 769 new research projects on cancer. Through a national competition where only the best proposals receive support, a scientific committee, comprised of peers, selects the projects to be funded.
Through its support of basic and environment-cancer research, the Society is working towards improving prevention and treatment of this disease, with the hope of discovering a cure, for the different forms of the disease.
