Directory of expertise

Our directory of expertise connects researchers, industry partners and other organisations with relevant expertise from across the network.

The directory includes more than 100 discovery scientists, translational researchers and clinicians based at our adult and paediatric centres.

It captures information about their expertise and research interests.

The directory covers a broad range of areas relevant to experimental cancer medicine, including:

This information helps our programme office identify experts across the network who can support specific research questions, projects, clinical development programmes or other collaboration opportunities.

If you’re looking for particular expertise within the network, please complete our access request form.

The form will ask you to provide information about your organisation, project or opportunity and the type of expertise you are looking for.

Once we receive your request, the programme office will review your requirements and search the directory for relevant expertise. If we identify people who match your requirements, we will contact them to see if they are interested in the opportunity.

We will let you know within 10 working days whether we have found relevant individuals who would like to discuss the opportunity further.

Where appropriate, we can then help facilitate engagement, including:

• introductions by email

• connecting you with relevant investigators or research teams

• arranging discussions or meetings with investigators when expertise from several areas would be valuable

We'll identify the most relevant expertise from across the network based on the information you provide. However, submitting a request does not guarantee that a suitable match will be available.

We welcome requests from UK-based and international academic researchers, industry and biotechnology partners, research organisations and colleagues at our member centres.

Requests may involve a specific research question, clinical development programme, or finding potential collaborators or investigators.

We can help connect you with scientific, translational or clinical expertise to support the development and delivery of experimental cancer medicine research.

We're always interested in adding new expert members from within the ECMC network. If you’re based at one of our centres, you can register your expertise through the form below.
