The Cancer Control Program is a highly collaborative and transdisciplinary Program that focuses on identifying and analyzing the genetic, behavioral, and health care determinants of cancer susceptibility and outcomes in diverse and vulnerable populations and on developing, evaluating and implementing interventions to lower risk and improve cancer outcomes. The Cancer Control Program is one of two Population Science Research Programs of the Abramson Cancer Center. Program members work intra- and inter-Programmatically to apply advances in science to population health and cutting-edge data analytics, address the cancer burdens and risk factors in our catchment area, and train the next generation of cancer control researchers.
The Cancer Control Program is a vibrant community of interactive population science investigators working across four inter-connected aims to further research impacting our catchment area and beyond.
