Grants submitted to Breakthrough Cancer Research undergo a vigorous process of review before they are potentially awarded funding. This is to ensure they answer our research priorities, have scientific merit, appropriate project design and fulfil an unmet need.
International experts are involved in both Peer Review and our own Scientific Advisory Committee and our Public Patient Panel (PPI) helps determine our research priorities and provide opinion and analysis to grants during the review process.
