The George Washington University (GW) Cancer Center boasts state-of-the-art research facilities and programs dedicated to cancer discovery through interdisciplinary collaboration with scientists and clinicians throughout GW. These partnerships, across campus and across the country, facilitate novel approaches to cancer diagnosis and treatment in the areas of cancer biology; cancer engineering and technology; cancer immunology and microbial oncology; population sciences and policy.
The Cancer Control and Health Equity Program identifies and analyzes factors contributing to cancer risk at individual and population levels to develop targeted interventions aimed at reducing cancer prevalence within our community, with a focus on marginalized groups.
The Cancer Biology and Immunology Program investigates the basic biological processes that underlie cancer progression and interactions with the immune system.
The Clinical and Translational Oncology Program translates discoveries into therapies and technologies for clinical application by bringing together key stakeholders, including oncologists, translational scientists, and engineers.
