Our research

Our eight research themes bring together a critical mass of internationally renowned clinicians, scientists and allied health professionals, allowing us to ensure that novel diagnostics and physical and systemic therapies are rapidly available to all cancer patients.

Targeted Physical Therapies

Using advanced imaging technologies to guide treatments more effectively while reducing the damage to surrounding healthy tissue

Novel Cancer Therapeutics

Developing innovative systemic therapies to meet the challenges of cancer evolution, tumour heterogeneity and drug resistance

Breast Cancer

Identifying new approaches to predicting individual patient outcomes and discovering new targeted treatments for breast cancer

Gastrointestinal Cancers

Improving cure rates, reducing overtreatment and complications, and preventing and managing adverse side effects from treatment

Prostate Cancer

Improving treatment selection and outcomes for patients, using advances in molecular diagnostics and treatment options

Uncommon Cancers

Improving diagnosis, treatment and outcomes of patients with uncommon cancers including cancers of childhood and adolescence

Genotypes, Phenotypes and Cancer Evolution

Developing innovative molecular diagnostics and analytic techniques to better understand responses to treatment and cancer evolution

Digital

Developing a digital toolkit for data integration to evaluate and guide the development of novel diagnostic procedures and treatments
