Cancer Research UK, Funding Award - Jan 2017

The Health Economics Group is pleased to be collaborating with Willie Hamilton‌ (UEMS) and Dr Fiona Walter (University of Cambridge) on a new research award from Cancer Research UK. Anne Spencer is a co-applicant on the CanTest project which will aim to discover, improve and develop effective ways for GPs to diagnose cancer. ‌The project will consider the suitability, accuracy and cost effectiveness of a range of diagnostic methods and tools for both patients and GPs. It is hoped that this will also lower diagnostic waiting times and the burden and anxiety this causes. Pictured, are some of the members of the project team, Anne Spencer, Willie Hamilton and Gary Abel.
