About Children's Cancer

At Children’s Cancer Institute, we believe that a life should be long. That every child should have the chance to grow up and grow old. To plan exciting futures, chase their dreams, and fulfil their potential. But cancer cuts life short for hundreds of children every year, before they’ve even had a chance to make their mark. Here in Australia, more than 1000 children and adolescents are diagnosed with cancer every single year. And every week, 3 young lives will be lost to the disease. For those who survive, up to 70% will experience serious long-term health problems caused by the very treatment that saved their life. As the only independent medical research institute in Australia wholly dedicated to childhood cancer, our role is vital. Sixty years ago, cancer was nearly always a death sentence for a child. Today, thanks to medical research, more than 8 out of 10 children survive. But we won’t stop until every child can live a long, happy and healthy life. Our task won’t be easy – childhood cancer is hugely complex – but we’re confident that with the brightest brains, the latest in cutting-edge technology and worldwide collaboration, we can and we will cure every child of cancer. It’s not if, it’s when. To view all of our current career opportunities, please visit: https://ccia.org.au/home/join-us/work-us/
