Our research achievements – Improving quality of life

More people than ever before are living with and beyond breast cancer. For that, we need to improve the quality of life for all those affected with the disease.

What are we trying to achieve?

There are many areas we need to research to ensure that by 2050, everyone diagnosed with breast cancer will live and be supported to live well.

Our researchers are looking for new ways to improve support for the physical, mental and emotional health of people with breast cancer to improve their quality of life. So that everybody living with or beyond the disease lives well.
