About the OU Cancer Institute:
The OU Cancer Institute (OUCI) is located on the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center campus in Oklahoma City. Under the guidance of Robert Mannel, MD, Director, the mission of the OUCI is to promote and support cancer research, education care and patient support for Oklahoma.
Members of the OUCI — including faculty from OU Health Sciences Center, OU Norman, OU Tulsa and the Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation — conduct innovative and nationally-funded cancer research in the basic, clinical and population sciences. Regardless of expertise or home institution, all members of the OUCI share a common goal: reducing the morbidity and mortality caused by cancer in Oklahoma and beyond.
The cancer researchers and physicians recruited to the OUCI in the coming years will bring world-class training and expertise to Oklahoma. They will work in many areas, including breast and gynecological cancers, pediatric cancers, and lung, colorectal, bladder and prostate cancer. They will bring research expertise, funding, and the experience necessary to launch innovate clinical trials to test the latest drugs and therapies. They will connect the citizens of Oklahoma with the latest developments in cancer prevention, detection, treatment and cure.
OU Cancer Institute physicians and researchers have been attacking cancer head on, whether in the laboratory, clinic or community. Their efforts provide a strong foundation on which to build a comprehensive cancer institute for all Oklahomans.
