Children's cancer research goes world class
The fight against children's cancer was given a major boost with the opening of new world class cancer research laboratories at the Murdoch Childrens.
A $1 million grant from the Australian Cancer Research Foundation helped fund the innovative partnership, which will see researchers working side by side with doctors and nurses caring for children with cancer, providing a unique opportunity for important discoveries.
The laboratories are the first part of the Children's Cancer Centre to open.
The $21 million Children's Cancer Centre project has been funded by Federal and State governments, Camp Quality, My Room, Murdoch Childrens Research Institute and The Royal Children's Hospital.
