Professor Georgios Giamas

We are delighted to congratulate Professor Georgios Giamas who has just been made a Professor at the University of Sussex.

Georgios has been part of the Action Against Cancer story since the beginning. We are proud to have supported his groundbreaking research since 2011, developing a new life saving drug. You can read more about this work here.

"It can be difficult to secure satisfactory funding to perform top quality research in the cancer field as it is highly competitive. Action Against Cancer has provided the funding enabling me to conduct my research at the highest level.

The continuous support from Hilary Craft and the other Trustees has inspired and motivated my personal development. It would not be an exaggeration to say that I have reached a professional level, which would have taken another five or more years without the charity’s support. I am, have been and will always be extremely grateful to Action Against Cancer." Professor Georgios Giamas
