The primal objects for which the Charity is established are the supporting medical researches of all kinds, specially cancer research, support for emerging visual and performing artists and sports talents including water sports for disadvantaged young people in United Kingdom and Europe.

The Zdenko Kos Foundation, in collaboration with communities around the United Kingdom and Europe and network partners, connects the people, data and resources needed to address challenging health problems associated with all sorts of cancer or other medical issues, along to support positive changes in people lives, to promotes education, policy, research and systemic change that will foster measurable and sustainable improvement for all people living with cancer or other medical issues or simply because of difficult way of living.

Understanding of Cancer's has grown substantially over the past 13 years.

The Kos Foundation is building on this momentum to explore prevention of the disease and transform diagnosis and treatments.

Years of work spent uncovering Cancer’s secrets > defining the highly variable patient experience, shedding light on genetic origins of disease, mapping molecular pathways — are now paying off in a tangible quickening tempo of scientific progress.

Investigators are increasingly linking cellular pathology to outward clinical symptoms (and vice versa) to identify new therapeutic and biomarker targets. This has positioned drug makers to make rapid inroads toward treatments that have the potential to slow or stop progression of Cancer's disease (CD).

The field also is closer than ever to arriving at therapies that can treat all the symptoms of CD, including the less well understood non-visible aspects, such as eg. with brain cancer patients persistently feeling sick (nausea), being sick (vomiting) and drowsiness, mental or behavioural changes, such as memory problems or changes in personality, progressive weakness or paralysis on one side of the body up to vision or speech problems.
