International cancer fellowships play a major role in the UICC's vision and mission. They provide opportunities for professional development for cancer investigators, clinicians, nurses, and cancer society staff and volunteers.

Each year an international review panel of over 800 volunteer experts considers more than 1,000 applications. Each year this results in up to 200 fellowships, to advance, transfer and disseminate cancer knowledge from those who have it to those who need it.

Through the generous financial contributions of sponsors and the expertise of our volunteer reviewers, almost 6,000 health professionals have benefited from UICC fellowships since they were established in 1961.
