About the team
Cancer Research Horizons (CRH) is Cancer Research UK's innovation engine. We take scientific breakthroughs from the lab bench to the bedside, translating them into effective treatments and diagnostics for cancer patients.
With exclusive rights to over £350 million of world-class cancer research we’re a unique and powerful partner in the fight to beat cancer. We work closely with academia, industry, and investors to bridge the gap between research and the market, delivering maximum impact for patients.
