We’re providing over $250,000 to enable 44 emerging cancer researchers in NSW to share their research around the world, via a new Travel Grant scheme.

These future cancer research leaders will share their work at leading academic conferences locally and around the world and bring back new ideas for addressing our biggest cancer challenges.

The Cancer Institute NSW is dedicated to supporting the next generation of cancer researchers in NSW through grant schemes that support their career development.
