Our News – Research Highlights

2006 Brochure
The Center for Cancer Research (CCR) provides sustained support for outstanding, rigorously reviewed, investigator-initiated research programs. This research is spearheaded by the scientist and addresses some of the most perplexing questions in scientific research today. Our researchers apply their expertise, insights, and research passion to solving these complex questions and translating them into interventions for cancer and AIDS.

Major areas of focus within the CCR include molecular oncology and molecular targets, cancer biology and etiology, HIV/AIDS, immunology, genetics and genomics, and imaging and biomarkers. Transcending the borders of these focus areas, CCR’s programmatic initiatives capture strengths within these theme areas and combine them to generate new ideas, collaborations, and outcomes.

The highlights featured in our 2006 brochure demonstrate how CCR’s sustained commitment to exploration and discovery lead to new approaches and interventions to improve the lives of cancer and HIV/AIDS patients.
