Children's Cancer Institute Australia for Medical Research (CCIA) is the only independent medical research institute in Australia dedicated to research into the causes, prevention, better treatments and ultimately a cure for childhood cancer.
For over 25 years we have conducted world-class translational childhood cancer research, working towards our vision to save the lives of all children with cancer and eliminate their suffering. We are proud to be based in one of the world's leading cancer research centres, the Lowy Cancer Research Centre on the UNSW Kensington campus.
