WHAT WE DO

OUR UNIQUE APPROACH

Historically, scientists have worked independently on different pieces of the cancer puzzle or have studied the same cancer questions without coordinating their efforts or sharing data. SU2C funds multidisciplinary, multi-institutional, collaborative research projects that address critical problems in cancer prevention, diagnosis, and treatment to deliver near-term patient benefit. This innovative approach is transforming cutting-edge cancer research.

Collaboration

SU2C’s unique funding model mandates collaboration and innovation among our researchers and includes 1,950 scientists across more than 210 institutions.

Acceleration

SU2C funds scientifically rigorous, patient-focused research to accelerate the development of new treatments for people with cancer. The SU2C research portfolio includes 112 collaborative research teams, as well as 49 individual early-career investigators to bring new scientists and their ideas into cancer research.

Breakthrough Research

By innovating new ways for researchers to work together and providing substantial funding to deliver results, SU2C makes breakthroughs happen.
SU2C-supported research has already led to 9 new FDA-approved cancer treatments.
