Our History and Vision

Prostate Cancer Research was originally founded by Professor John Masters, a scientist who was passionate about finding new treatments for prostate cancer.

Since then, we have continued to strive forward to build a future where people are free from the impact of prostate cancer.

Our team has expanded the amount of research we fund five times over in four years, been shortlisted for an impact prize, and identified and targeted specific unmet needs in the prostate cancer ecosystem, such as racial inequalities and bone metastasis.

Together with people affected by prostate cancer, we have developed a number of patient projects. From building a new platform to help patients make better choices to setting up a first-of-its-kind prostate cancer registry in the UK.
