Research and Grants Committee

Gateway for Cancer Research utilizes the expertise of our Research and Grants (Peer Review) Committee to ensure that the organization only funds the most impactful clinical trials. This external body of oncology research experts is comprised of medical oncologists, surgical oncologists, clinician scientists, clinical trialists, naturopathic oncologists, cancer researchers, and patient advocates. The Committee reviews each grant proposal received by Gateway for scientific merit, fiscal prudence, and alignment with Gateway’s mission.
