Program streams

Research Infrastructure

The Cancer Institute NSW initiated the research infrastructure program because it was recognised that the availability of research infrastructure is vital to ensuring that cancer research capacity and quality continues to expand in NSW.

Career Support

The broad aim of the Career Support Program is to build capacity for Cancer Research in NSW by attracting new cancer researchers to NSW and supporting existing researchers to become more skilled and more internationally competitive.

Translational research

The translation of research discoveries into public benefit has become a focus for many research funding agencies and is particularly relevant for the Cancer Institute with a core aim of impacting upon population health.

Clinical trials

Cancer Institute NSW, in collaboration with the Cancer Council NSW, supports clinical trials by providing the funding for  resources, infrastructure and personnel to trial units and research institutions across NSW.

Cancer services

We promote innovation amongst cancer health networks through our business improvement strategy projects and Health Service Innovation Grants.
