The National Foundation for Cancer Research (NFCR) is a leading public charity dedicated to funding cancer research and public education relating to cancer prevention, earlier diagnosis, better treatments and, ultimately, cures for cancer. NFCR has distinguished itself in the cancer research sector by emphasizing long-term, transformative research often overlooked by other major funding sources. NFCR promotes and facilitates collaboration among scientists to accelerate the pace of discovery from bench to bedside. Since 1973, NFCR has provided more than $415 million in support of discovery-oriented cancer research focused on understanding how and why cells become cancerous, and on public education relating to cancer prevention, detection, and treatment. NFCR is committed to fighting cancer by funding high-risk, high-impact, and potentially high-reward discoveries in the labs and transforming them into life-saving treatments for cancer patients. Through global collaboration, NFCR is making unique impacts on new, accelerated paths to a cure. NFCR envisions a world without cancer!
