Research
Bowel cancer is the UK’s fourth most common cancer and the second biggest cancer killer. Yet it doesn’t have to be this way. When diagnosed at the earliest stages, bowel cancer is treatable and curable.
Research is an incredibly powerful instrument of change. All the initiatives that currently benefit patients with bowel cancer — from diagnostics and surgical techniques through to personalised medicines and beyond — started life as research ideas that required careful nurturing, funding and development into the life-changing interventions we have today.
