Cambridge
is changing
the story
of cancer

One in two of us will be diagnosed with cancer in our lifetime.
We can change this.
Cambridge Cancer
Research Hospital

The University of Cambridge and Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust are building a new hospital that will treat patients across the East of England.
The research that takes place there promises to change the lives of cancer patients across the UK and beyond.
We’re detecting
cancer earlier

Our researchers are finding radical new ways to spot cancer early so that it can be treated more easily.
We're developing
kinder, more
effective
treatments

Cutting-edge genome technology will allow us to examine tumour DNA faster than ever and tailor treatments to the patient as well as their cancer.
We're involving
patients at
every stage

In Cambridge, patients are involved in every single step of the process – from planning research priorities, to developing clinical trials, to designing a new Cambridge Cancer Research Hospital.
"We’ll start to see AI impacting in each stage of the patient’s treatment"
