The Ulster Cancer Foundation, since it was established in 1969, has been one of the major funders of cancer research in Northern Ireland. This has included funding for research projects, clinical and scientific fellowships, lectureships and chairs.
We have spent over £11 million on cancer research in Northern Ireland, supported well over 250 research investigations into the cancer group of diseases, provided training for dozens of young clinicians and scientists in both Queen’s University Belfast and the University of Ulster, as well as helping to fund the establishment of the Northern Ireland Cancer Registry.
Today the main priority for UCF research is to pump-prime focused programmes of cancer research in Northern Ireland that are of the highest standards.
