AstraZeneca has been generous in its support of BACR activities for many years. This includes the BACR/AstraZeneca Young Scientist Frank Rose Award, first given in 1993 to reward the achievement of a young scientist who had made a significant contribution to cancer research.

In recent years, the Award has been presented at the annual National Cancer Research Institute cancer conference. AstraZeneca continues to support this Award and selected BACR meetings of specific interest. The BACR wishes to express its gratitude to AstraZeneca for its continuing support.
