Advancing Care of Paediatric CNS Tumours

The Robert Connor Dawes Foundation funding will develop key facilities to expand paediatric brain cancer research in South Australia.

This funding is for the establishment of South Australia's first Paediatric Brain Tumour Biobank.

The team will establish a comprehensive, well annotated and run paediatric brain cancer biobank that will foster high quality discovery and clinical research. It is particularly important to have this paediatric brain cancer biobanking capacity established in South Australia as we move toward proton therapy for children with brain tumours at SAHMRI and the Bragg Centre for Proton Therapy and Research.

This project is funded by the Robert Connor Dawes Foundation
