We are always interested in receiving new and innovative cancer drug discovery proposals and invite researchers to submit new project ideas. Drug discovery projects are run and managed by Canthera Discovery in close collaboration with you, the project champion.

If you would like to propose a new drug discovery project to us based on your ground-breaking research, please request a new project proposal form and initiate discussions by contacting us at proposals@cantheradiscovery.com
