Research programs
Mayo Clinic Comprehensive Cancer Center fosters cancer research in part through formal research programs funded by the National Cancer Institute (NCI). These research programs are a vital component of our recognition as an NCI-Designated Comprehensive Cancer Center.
The research programs bring together groups of cancer investigators who share common scientific interests and goals and participate in competitively funded research. Their work helps prevent cancer, provides medical solutions for people with cancer and reduces the burden of cancer.
The research programs also promote the exchange of important information, experimental techniques and innovative ideas. These efforts enhance the individual productivity of scientists and often result in collaborations and joint publications across the three Mayo Clinic Comprehensive Cancer Center geographic locations and with other institutions.
Investigators in the Cancer Center research programs are dedicated to ensuring optimal health outcomes for all.
