Translational cancer research is key for addressing, understanding and preventing cancer, a worldwide health concern despite the continuous advancement of research and treatment approaches.
The EU-funded TRANSCAN-3 project is bringing together 31 funding organisations from 20 countries, with the common goal of supporting high-impact translational cancer research. Through cross-national joint calls for proposals and making the most of international and interregional cooperation, TRANSCAN-3 aims to provide influential contributions as well as a sustainable model of funding for ground-breaking translational cancer research in Europe and beyond.
