High risk, high reward cancer research

Cancer Council Victoria is relentless in its pursuit of breakthroughs.
Venture Grants support innovative researchers with courageous ideas who would not be able to attract conventional funding.

We are seeking the brightest cancer researchers who are willing to push the boundaries of conventional thinking to achieve major breakthroughs in cancer treatment and diagnosis.  

We welcome applications that relate to causes, prevention, diagnosis, supportive care or treatment of cancer and that present a scientifically sound vision that if successful, would open the way for  significant advances in cancer control.
