“
So many of us have been affected by cancer or dementia. It is exciting to hear that the University is adopting a multidisciplinary approach to tackling these diseases – it has to be the way forward. This means so much to me, personally, as my mother is suffering with dementia and I see, first-hand, how essential it is to progress medical research.”

Fund PhD research
Support us to provide interdisciplinary scholarships for PhD students, who are critical to increasing the speed and quality of research. Each four-year programme costs £130,000 and you could fully fund a scholarship or join a community of like-minded supporters to fund a position together.
Fund postdoctoral research
We need more skilled researchers to initiate and lead on crucial, interdisciplinary research projects. These positions vary in length and cost.
Fund equipment
Technology changes and advances all the time. The latest equipment enables research to happen faster and more effectively. We’re looking to fund more of the latest high-tech kit, ranging in value from £5,000 to £300,000.
