RELEVANCE TO CANCER
7. Relevance to the causes, diagnosis, treatment or prevention of cancer
Please include information on the relevance to cancer in your response, including how you might
progress the results of your work and its translation into clinical practice. The application will be
considered insufficiently relevant if the relevance and significance to another disease is greater than
to cancer, or if the research is of such a fundamental nature that its likely short or medium term
impact on cancer control is low.
