Governance
Representing the voices of cancer research across Oxford, Oxford Cancer is committed to open and transparent communication with its members and our governance structure reflects this.
The Oxford Cancer Committees include representation from across the full breadth of activity in Oxford. We strive to ensure that the voice of each area of cancer research is represented in our committee structures. In turn, those representatives are not only charged with being ambassadors for their area of expertise but also for the Oxford Cancer network, bringing in more members and expanding the reach of our network.
Through its governance, Oxford Cancer coordinates new initiatives and provides the forum for consensus-building about the overall strategic direction for Oxford, providing a framework in which the individual aims and ambitions of the various constituent parts of the Oxford Cancer network can thrive while being united for maximum impact.
