About the University of Colorado Cancer Center:
The University of Colorado Cancer Center is the Rocky Mountain region’s only National Cancer Institute-designated comprehensive cancer center. Headquartered on the Anschutz Medical Campus, UCCC is a consortium of three state universities and five institutions.Together, our 400+ members are working to ease the cancer burden through cancer care, research, education and prevention and control.
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.
