KCSN Medical Advisory Board
The KCSN Medical Advisory Board has been established to support the work of our charity and, in particular, the clinical trials and research element of KCSN. The members of the board are recognised experts in renal cancer from leading institutions and hospitals around the UK, and many also serve on the National Cancer Research Institute (NCRI) Bladder and Renal Cancer Clinical Studies Group (CSG).
We are fortunate to have secured the commitment of such an eminent group of leading clinicians and nurses. We are honoured they have joined us in this exciting 5-year patient-led project to support research into renal cancer and to improve recruitment and retention of renal cancer patients in clinical trials.
