Research webinars for supporters
Stay up to date with the latest developments in prostate cancer research
From Ideas to Impact
Our free webinar series 'From Ideas to Impact' is designed for men and their families, or anyone who's interested in hearing more about the prostate cancer research we fund. Hear directly from our researchers, and find out how their groundbreaking work is making a difference for men.
Our webinars are held live on Zoom, so you can put your questions straight to our panel by typing them into the Q&A box.

"I've attended several PCUK webinars and they have all been excellent: well organised, well-presented and I think the format with experts and men with prostate cancer is a great way of making it relevant. Always learn something new and there is always feeling afterwards of hope and support."
Upcoming webinars
From Ideas to Impact: Tailoring treatments for advanced prostate cancer
What's it about?
We’ll be joined by some of our top researchers, who are investigating if adding chemotherapy to hormone therapy could help men with advanced cancer. This trial is testing whether adding this chemotherapy sooner can help this group of men live longer, without significantly harming their quality of life.
When's it happening?
Wednesday 1 July 2026, 7pm–8.15pm
How can I sign up?
This webinar is free to join. Just click the button below to sign up with your email address, and we'll send you all the details.
"It’s great to hear from the experts on the front line about the research and the medical advances being made and the real difference this can make to men with prostate cancer, like me. It makes me feel positive for the future."
Previous webinars
Catch up with some of our recent research webinars below.
January 2026: From Ideas to Impact – Using AI to bring the future into focus
Discover how we're using a transformative AI tool to help understand how likely a man’s cancer is to spread at diagnosis and how this could lead to more targeted treatment options, ultimately improving men’s quality of life and potentially saving lives.
You'll hear insights from the two researchers leading the project from the University of Oxford, a technological expert from Artera, and a man who was diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer.
November 2025: From Ideas to Impact – Putting new treatments in the hands of men
Find how we're using the ASPIRE clinical trial to test a new way to prevent treatment resistance in prostate cancer, and how this could help treatments keep working for longer.
You'll hear from the three researchers leading the project from The Institute of Cancer Research, and a man who was diagnosed with incurable prostate cancer shared what this research means to him.
July 2025: From Ideas to Impact – Giving men more time for what matters
Discover how the PACE-NODES clinical trial is being used to advance radiotherapy, and how this could lead to fewer men’s cancer coming back as well as fewer treatment sessions needed.
Listen in on the three researchers from the Institute of Cancer Research leading the project, as well as a man living with advanced cancer who wants to see treatments such as this lengthen and improve men’s lives.
March 2025: From Ideas to Impact - Rewriting the script on aggressive prostate cancer
Learn how cutting-edge technology could be used to direct cancer cells to ignore instructions written in their DNA that tell them to grow quickly, and how this approach could open the door for new treatments to slow aggressive prostate cancer, helping men live longer, healthier lives.
You'll hear from the three researchers from Newcastle University leading this project, as well as a couple who shared the impact of prostate cancer on their lives, and their determination to live life to the fullest.
November 2024: From Ideas to Impact - Navigating prostate cancer risk factors with genetics
Find out how a combination of genetic data and artificial intelligence (AI) could predict if a man is likely to develop prostate cancer, and how aggressive the cancer might be. The researchers will explain how this innovative research could lead to improved detection, personalised treatments, and potential ways to prevent the spread of prostate cancer.
Hear from the three researchers from the Institute of Cancer Research and the University of East Anglia who are leading the project, as well as from twin brothers who’ve both experienced prostate cancer.
March 2024: From Ideas to Impact - How to improve MRI
Gain insight into how advances in imaging are revolutionising the way we diagnose prostate cancer, and how developing MRI scans that are faster, cheaper and less invasive, could enable more men to get an earlier, more accurate diagnosis.
You'll hear from the researchers leading the project, as well as from a man with lived experience of prostate cancer.
November 2023: From Ideas to Impact - New approaches to diagnosis and treatment.
Listen to the groundbreaking new approaches being developed to diagnose and treat prostate cancer.
Hear from a researcher at the University of Birmingham who’s using sugars to diagnose aggressive prostate cancer, and a researcher at Ulster University who’s developing microscopic bubbles to deliver cancer-targeting drugs to the prostate. A man with lived experience of prostate cancer also shared his personal journey, emphasising the importance of men knowing their risk.
