The £180,000 Appeal
Topic of Cancer is fundraising to support a three-year PhD Fellowship. Our £180,000 Appeal will fund innovative new research with real potential to transform cancer treatment and improve the outcomes for patients for generations to come. We need your help! Be part of the cure.
At Topic of Cancer, we’re funding groundbreaking research into immunotherapy, a revolutionary approach that empowers the body’s immune system to fight cancer. Our work extends to vital areas like exploring the role of the microbiome in treatment, understanding how exercise can improve outcomes, and identifying key biomarkers to personalise therapies. All of this research is led by experts at the University of Surrey, ensuring that every donation directly supports innovative treatments that can change lives. Together, we’re advancing the future of cancer care.
