Your hospital • Your University • World-leading cancer research

Almost 1 in 2 people in the UK will develop cancer. You can help change what happens next.

From revolutionising bowel cancer screening across Scotland to reducing liver cancer rates across Tayside, researchers here at the University of Dundee are finding better ways to prevent, diagnose, and treat cancer.

But no-one should have to leave their life to chance.

Ninewells Cancer Campaign is the University’s dedicated cancer research fundraising campaign. Every gift supports cancer research across the University, from discoveries in the laboratory to new treatments being tested with patients at Ninewells Hospital and Medical School and Dundee Dental Hospital.

We are determined to change the odds. And with your support, we can.
