The West of Scotland Comprehensive Cancer Centre aims to integrate Glasgow’s considerable strengths in cancer research, which stretch from basic biology all the way through to clinical care. Based on a true spirit of partnership amongst the whole cancer research community, the WoSCCC will help us exploit our full potential.

Our ambition is to turn knowledge into cures.

• WE CAN create a world-class research environment to foster synergy between cancer researchers and clinicians, to help bring these groups together in a common cause.
• WE CAN build collaborations to most effectively translate our research into new ways to detect and treat cancer.
• WE CAN provide the people of the West of Scotland and beyond with cutting-edge cancer treatment in state-of-the-art facilities.
• WE CAN reach out to our community, including our schools, with information about how to detect, treat and reduce the risk of developing cancer.
• WE CAN attract and retain the best cancer scientists and doctors for the West of Scotland.
• WE CAN train the next generation of leaders in cancer research and cancer care.

"By working together we will bring our leading-edge cancer research to real benefit for cancer patients." Professor Karen Vousden
