Funding the future experts This year we have continued to fund clinical research fellows dedicated to research in various cancer specialties including breast, gynaecology, lung, renal and haematology. Clinical research fellows are generally doctors early in their careers, who have a specific interest in pursuing a career in oncology. With an interest in gaining further research and clinical trial experience, they help to co-ordinate vital research projects, working with experienced clinicians to improve patient outcomes through practice-changing research. Not only are these posts helping to improve outcomes for patients through improved survival rates, The Christie’s investment in fellowships is helping us to develop and train the cancer experts of the future. This year, The Christie charity provided almost £130,000 in funds towards fellowships, highlighting our commitment to investing in future talent.
