Research
Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center's revolutionary model of a “multidisciplinary approach” to cancer — with scientists and clinicians working in concert and in consult — has become the standard by which all modern-day comprehensive cancer centers are measured.
120+ years of groundbreaking discoveries – and hope.
In 1898, Dr. Roswell Park founded the first institution in the world to focus exclusively on cancer research.
Since then, we’ve been a model for cancer research centers around the world – and we’re continually expanding and transforming cancer science in ways our founder could only have imagined.
