Cancer Research Institute

The Cancer Research Institute provides leadership and support for researchers working toward understanding and controlling cancer. The Institute serves as a means of focusing, coordinating, and directing efforts of scholars in basic and clinical sciences from several departments of the School of Biological Sciences and the College of Medicine. It provides a central source of information concerning cancer-related research, as well as a forum in which basic researchers and clinicians can assess advances that may be of immediate value in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer, and in the detection of chemicals or conditions that cause cancer. Ongoing and projected research activities involve carcinogenesis, tumor virology, immunology, growth factors/cell signaling, and structural molecular biology. The CRI serves as the basic science arm of the UCI Chao Family Comprehensive Cancer Center. It also administers an NCI training grant in cancer biology, and coordinates the cancer biology track of the joint MBGB graduate program.
