基金This project was funded by the Movember Foundation as part of their Australian and New Zealand prostate cancer outcomes registry initiative(PCOR-ANZ)which aims to develop a binational clinical registry for outcomes monitoring and research to inform practice and improve outcomes for men with prostate cancer.Dr.Beckmann is supported by an NHMRC Early Career Researcher Fellowship.
