The cost of visas for scientists at our research institutes is set to rise by 44% in a year. This will discourage scientists from coming to work in the UK and take vital funds away from our life-saving research. We’re calling on the new government to make its #First100Days a #TurningPointForCancer, including by reviewing visa fees for scientists. Find out more 👉 cruk.ink/4diHf3J

Today we are publishing evidence from our Institutes to show the impact of changes to the UK immigration system on cancer research. We call on the new UK Government to reduce costs and review the system so it works for research - to meet their ambitions for health and growth.
