New Funding Call Invites UK Organisations to Join Cancer Research Network
Published
Cancer Research UK and the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) have launched a new funding call for the Experimental Cancer Medicine Centres (ECMC) network. The call covers the years 2028 to 2033 and is open to organisations across the United Kingdom.
The ECMC network is a group of centres that test new cancer medicines in patients. Its aim is to help researchers move promising treatments from laboratory studies into clinical trials, so that patients can access new options sooner. The network is supported by both Cancer Research UK and the NIHR, which is the main public funder of health research in England.
The funding call invites UK organisations to apply to join the network. Details about the application process, eligibility rules and deadlines are set out in the official call documents. Organisations interested in taking part are encouraged to read these materials carefully before they apply.
The call shows continued investment in cancer research in the UK. Joining the ECMC network would give participating organisations a role in developing early-stage cancer treatments. The full outcome of the call will depend on the applications received and the decisions made by the funders.
