What is AFCR?
The Asian Fund for Cancer Research Limited (AFCR) is committed to funding cancer research, especially those cancers prevalent in Asian populations, and promote global collaborations for high impact to save the lives of cancer patients.
Our Research Projects
AFCR is dedicated to sponsoring and supporting innovative research projects that unlock new information about how cancer forms and spreads, and, most importantly, how to treat it.
The State of Cancer Research
Cancer research is about much more than just the scientists, physicians, and nurses who are continuing decades of exploration; it benefits millions of patients and survivors in the form of innovative treatments, screening methods, and promising developments.
We are making great progress against cancer, but there is still more to be done. And you can help.
