Research Saves Lives

Although great progress has been made, cancer incidence continues to grow. Today, a woman’s chance of being confronted with breast cancer is 1 in 8.

Research is the only way to understand breast cancer, how and why it progresses, and how it can ultimately be stopped.

Why research?

Together, we can cure breast cancer

Patients’ needs and quality of life are in the heart of our activities. Thanks to genetic research on cancer cells over the last decade, we now understand that breast cancer is not one single disease, but many different subtypes.

We also know that all patients are different and require a unique treatment approach. Our aim is to find the right treatment for every patient.

Research that transforms lives

We are on a mission to change that.

 

BIG is an international not-for-profit organisation that represents the largest global network – over 50 countries, across 6 continents – of academic groups dedicated to breast cancer research.

Our mission is to facilitate and accelerate breast cancer research at the international level. We are convinced that through global research and collaboration, we will find a cure for breast cancer.

"Finding a cure is one of the biggest challenges faced by researchers from around the world."

Significant progress has been made to improve both the chances of survival and the quality of life of women affected by the disease. However, breast cancer remains the second most common cancer in the world and is still responsible for too many deaths annually.

By bringing together top breast cancer experts from around the world to conduct innovative research, BIG has the global reach and expertise required to find a cure. We need to support such critical research to give hope to women affected by this devastating disease, and their families.
