For the first time in Scotland, cancer has a single research clinical lead: July 2014

Congratulations to Professor David Cameron on his recent appointment as the Scottish Cancer Research Champion by the CSO.

This is a newly created role intended to unite regional cancer activity across Scotland, and provide a single voice for driving forward Scottish cancer research.

Professor Cameron is the Clinical Director at the Edinburgh Cancer Research UK Centre and Director of Cancer Services at NHS Lothian. As Professor of Oncology at Edinburgh University he is also an active researcher, with an interest in breast cancer.

It is the first time that cancer in Scotland has a single research clinical lead.
