About Us

Prevention

Expand research addressing risk assessment, prevention and early detection of cancer and develop strategies to disseminate these findings.

Strategy 4.1- We will pursue research aimed at individualization of risk assessment and prevention of cancer through gaining greater understanding of the role of genetic, environmental, cultural and lifestyle factors.

Strategy 4.2- We will investigate therapeutic agents and behavioral and dietary interventions that can prevent cancer or reverse pre-cancerous conditions.

Strategy 4.3- We will conduct research and provide education on health disparities, especially in minority and medically underserved populations, in which the burden of cancer is excessive.
