Cancer
We’re investigating the biological basis of many solid and blood borne malignancies, advancing diagnosis, developing and trialing new therapies, and improving all aspects of the management of cancer including palliative care.
Cancer research and survival rates have come a long way in Mater Research's 25 year history.
Watch our biomedical and clinical researchers speak passionately about the progress that's been made and the bright future ahead.
Program Leaders
Our Cancer Program Leaders are supported by six Cancer Program Group Leaders and a team of more than 60 group members. View a full listing of Cancer Program researchers.

Clinical Trials
Clinical trials are an essential component of modern healthcare and provide evidence to evaluate the safety and efficacy of new treatments, diagnostics and health interventions and offer alternative options for patients with unmet needs under current standards of care.
