| 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.
