Cancer
Cancer has become a major health problem in our global
community and it's expected that 50% of Australians will be
diagnosed with cancer by the age of 85.
Researchers investigating breast, prostate, ovarian, oral and
skin cancer at UQCCR are developing a better understanding of these
diseases.
This research is paving the way for the development of novel or
improved diagnostic technologies, and better methods of
treatment.
