1 in 8 women will develop invasive breast cancer. In 2024, 310,720 women and 2,790 men in the US alone are expected to be diagnosed with breast cancer. Around 10,000 women in the UK under the age of 50 are diagnosed with breast cancer each year. This impacts virtually every person directly or indirectly.
BCRF is the largest private funder of breast cancer research—and metastatic breast cancer research—worldwide. This year, they are funding more than 260 scientists at leading academic and medical institutions across 15 countries, with 6 of these scientists based in the UK.
