NCI Cancer Centers

The Cancer Centers Program of the National Cancer Institute (NCI) supports major academic and research institutions throughout the United States to sustain broad-based, coordinated, interdisciplinary programs in cancer research. These institutions are characterized by scientific excellence and the capability to integrate a diversity of research approaches to focus on the problem of cancer. The NCI, a part of the National Institutes of Health, and its Cancer Centers Program are dedicated to the advancement of cancer research to ultimately impact on the reduction of cancer incidence, morbidity, and mortality.

An NCI-designated cancer center may be a freestanding operation, a center within an academic institution, or a formal consortium under centralized leadership. But all NCI-designated cancer centers must meet the same scientific, organizational, and administrative criteria.

Here are the NCI Cancer Centers listed by state. For more information about these, go to http://cancercenters.cancer.gov/cancer_centers/index.html
