UK Cancer Research Funding Statistics

Robex writes "The BBC reports today that "Some of the UK's biggest cancer killers get only a fraction of the funding they deserve".

The graph has been produced by The UK National Cancer Research Institute and is the first ever comprehensive breakdown of cancer research in the UK.

You will be unsurprised to find that Breast Cancer is one of the most heavily funded cancers versus mortality rate. And if you ever were in doubt about the task we face in getting people to write about male health, the article manages to avoid mentiononing Prostate Cancer once. Of all the cancers shown on the graph, it and Melanoma are the only ones not mentioned."
