Research
Funding over 30 studies a year NWCRF provides grants for research into the fundamental causes of Cancer. We currently have active research projects in Liverpool, Lancaster and Bangor Universities.
How do we choose what to fund?
Scientists based in the North West of England and North Wales* are invited to apply for funding by providing detailed information about what they want to look into and why.
These applications are then reviewed by our scientific committee who meet twice a year. If the applications meet our high standards and comply with the criteria as written in the North West Cancer Research Fund embodying Friends of the Liverpool Radium Institute rule book then the grants will be awarded.
