Interdisciplinary Investigation Puts UCCC at the Leading Edge of Cancer Research
Basic, or laboratory-based, research at UCCC is led by a strong group of senior investigators with international reputations and extensive federal grant support. Our basic scientists strive to better understand the fundamental cell activity that leads to cancer. They work closely with our clinical researchers to translate laboratory findings into drugs, therapies and techniques that can be applied to people. Our clinical researchers then enroll patients in clinical trials to test these new treatments in cancer research studies. The result of this collaboration is a host of promising new techniques to diagnose, treat and prevent cancer.
Our members' work can be categorized two ways:
You can also search our Clinical Trials database for open and enrolling cancer research trials.
