Our mission is to use epidemiology and prevention and control research to advance understanding of cancer’s causes and to develop new methods of detecting and preventing cancer. The goal is to apply this knowledge to reduce the occurrence of cancer. For cancer patients, we seek to increase survival and enhance quality of life.

The work conducted within this interdisciplinary program focuses on epidemiology, primary prevention, early detection, and cancer disparities.
