Research is global and therefore access to data, with appropriate safeguards, should be global. Cancer Research UK (CRUK) is the world's largest charitable funder of cancer research. We draw on the strength of our network and collaborate with partners around the world to save and improve many more lives than we could alone, bringing hope to people affected by cancer everywhere.
