The Sarah Barlow Bowel Cancer Foundation
Tips for Applicants
Applicants should focus their proposals on research specifically related to young-onset bowel cancer, with a clear emphasis on early detection and the development of new or improved treatment options. Highlighting how the research will directly benefit young Australians (aged 20-40) will be crucial, aligning with the foundation's mission to address the lack of early diagnostic tools for this demographic.
Giving Philosophy
The foundation believes that current screening processes are inadequate for young people, leading to advanced diagnoses and limited treatment options. Their core philosophy is to fund targeted research to enable earlier detection and develop better treatments, thereby preventing premature deaths from bowel cancer among young Australians, in line with Dr. Sarah Barlow's vision.
