Breaking Down the Biology of Cancer
Researchers at the UAlbany Cancer Research Center are working to better understand the genetic and environmental causes of cancer, while providing in-depth training to early-career scientists.
Using state-of-the-art technologies, faculty and students focus on the underlying biology associated with tumor initiation and progression, as well as the development and evaluation of chemo-preventive regimens and therapeutic approaches for common cancers.
Our dedication to advancing cancer research while educating the next generation of scientists is demonstrated by various awards, including a $1.7M grant from the National Cancer Institute to study the role of nutrition in breast cancer.
You can support our efforts to eliminate cancer by contributing to the Fund for Memory and Hope. Gifts of any amount are most welcome.
