Peter Mac works in partnership with many organisations and networks locally and across the globe to improve the quality of cancer services and increase the reach, impact, community awareness and sustainability of our work.
We partner with local and global networks of institutions, industries and communities to improve the quality of cancer services and increase the reach, impact, community awareness and sustainability of our work.
We are located at the heart of Melbourne’s Biomedical Precinct, and are Australia’s leading integrated cancer research, treatment and education centre. We base our partnership strategy on the knowledge that nothing but the best is good enough in cancer care.
Partnerships are central to our model of care and impact – we deliver many of cancer clinical service with fellow Precinct members, the Royal Melbourne Hospital and Royal Children’s Hospital. We work actively with our alliance partners, and the cancer sector throughout Victoria and Australia, to provide our patients with the best possible care.
We pursue partnerships that break new ground and make life better for people affected by cancer. We partner with home-grown and international life-science companies, dedicated research and development institutions and venture firms to advance and translate discoveries into novel and more effective treatments for cancer patients.
Our clinical, research and education teams share knowledge and expertise with partners seeking to overcome inequity in cancer outcomes, particularly in developing health settings around the world.
Healthcare partnerships
We partner with both local and international health services and professionals where there are clear opportunities for patient-centric collaboration to create long-term impact. This includes working with our regional and rural healthcare partners in Victoria to build capacity and capability – and collaborating with our international colleagues to facilitate access to specialised services. We are driven by a mission to extend world’s best cancer care.
We deliver world-class cancer education and training through our external partnerships, and support entities seeking our unique insight and expertise to build their own capability in cancer care.
We are also member the Victorian Comprehensive Cancer Centre (VCCC) Alliance – learn more about VCCC Partners.
