Drug Development Projects

Cancer Disparities Research Partnership Program

To reduce cancer health disparities, this program will build clinical trials research in radiation oncology in institutions that care for a disproportionate number of medically underserved people. More…

TELESYNERGY®

TELESYNERGY® is a combination of computer hardware, telecommunications software, medical equipment, and human expertise that allows clinicians to collaborate as if they were in the same room. With the system, cancer center specialists can consult on cases all over the nation and abroad and mentor investigators who work with patients in under-served areas to promote participation in clinical trials.
