Barts Cancer Institute is internationally renowned in multiple areas of cancer research. Our strength lies in our culture of close, multidisciplinary collaboration among our more than 350 research staff and 100 graduate students, based across 7 scientific centres and units.

We conduct discovery research with a clear line-of-sight to the clinic, exploring the fundamental biology driving cancer to transform patient care. Working with Barts Health NHS Trust, we study London’s diverse cancer patient population to ensure advances in research benefit everyone.

Our research is supported by a number of Core Services. The institute's infrastructure and service support creates an ambitious environment, supporting cutting-edge cancer research.

Collaboration sits at the heart of our work at Barts Cancer Institute. Working with partners across academia, healthcare and industry, our collaborative initiatives support innovative research and help translate new knowledge into meaningful advances for patients.

We like to recognise the huge amounts of work and creativity that go into carrying out and publishing great cancer research. One way we do this is through our Paper of the Month award, which is decided by the Executive Board.

We are committed to embedding the principles of sustainable development across all areas of our operation and academic activities.
