Target Ovarian Cancer's Medical Research Programme

Leaflet-Cover

Target Ovarian Cancer’s UK-wide medical research programme is open for applications to both our Translational Award and Supportive & Palliative Care Award.  

Simon Newman, Target Ovarian Cancer’s Head of Research, said: “I am proud to announce our next funding round, the only UK-wide scheme specifically aimed at improving the lives of women living with ovarian cancer.  

“The outstanding quality of applications from our first funding round underlines the essential role Target Ovarian Cancer is fulfilling in providing research funding for world class researchers across the UK. Importantly we have increased the funding of our supportive and palliative care award as we understand the more immediate benefits to women living with ovarian cancer this research can bring. While supportive and palliative research has seen major cuts over the last few years, we hope to inject a substantial amount of money into this type of research. “

Applications can be submitted to Target Ovarian Cancer from 26th February. The deadline for applications is 14th June 2013.

If you have any questions about our research please contact our Head of Research, Dr Simon Newman.
