Description edit
Where will the cure for cancer come from?
The answer is research. Cancer is not a single disease, but more than 200. In the U.S. and around the world, men and women in laboratories and clinics, universities, medical centers, government and industry, are working not only to overcome this affliction that claims half a million American lives each year, but also to prevent it. More than 24,000 of them are members of the American Association for Cancer Research.
How does AACR promote cancer research?
AACR is the authoritative source of information about advances in the causes, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of cancer. By accelerating the growth and spread of new knowledge about cancer, AACR is on the front lines of the quest for prevention and cure.
