Cancer research is a core element of the Roswell Park mission to understand, prevent and cure cancer. As one of only 41 National Cancer Institute-designated comprehensive cancer centers, Roswell Park joins with the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) to acknowledge May as National Cancer Research Month.

Roswell Park Clinical Research Services

At Roswell Park, we have the ability to take new cancer treatments from the “bench to the bedside.” Because we can offer some of the latest cancer therapies before they are widely available, our patients have access to more options for treating their cancer.
