Field 8 – Clinical trials and design
Researchers can submit a proposal at any stage of development to receive support from our independent pool of oncology experts. To further assist clinical investigators, a toolbox will be available by the end of 2024.
When a user applies for this service, the consortium members will work together to ensure that the right experts are involved in reviewing the cancer research proposal received.
