Our programme office
Our programme office provides support and encourages collaboration across our experimental cancer medicine centres (ECMC) network.
Supporting our clinical network
The programme office facilitates set up and delivery of clinical research studies across our 29 centres.
We act as a single-entry point to our network – developing partnerships with sponsors and connecting them with the right sites to run their clinical trial. We also support our centres with training, resource development and through our network groups and forums.
The programme office supports the three pillars of our strategy:
accelerating innovative translational research
delivering globally competitive research
increasing patient centred and accessible research
