Collaboration & Funding
Our main international collaborators during the development of the RPA have been Tygerberg Hospital (Stellenbosch University) and Groote Schuur Hospital (University of Cape Town), both in South Africa, and Stanford University (USA). We also have collaborations with the University of the Free State (South Africa), Benavides Cancer Institute (Santo Tomas University, Philippines), Guy’s & St. Thomas’ Hospital (United Kingdom) and Gaborone Private Hospital (Botswana). We are constantly working to expand this network, including our Latin American RPA Consortium, focusing on the needs of Latin American countries.
The RPA project was started with funding from the National Cancer Institute (co-PIs: Laurence Court, Beth Beadle), and has since received additional development funding from Varian Medical Systems (PI: Laurence Court), the Wellcome Trust (PI: Laurence Court), and the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center (PI: Laurence Court).
