The Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics (DCEG) conducts high-quality, high-impact population and multidisciplinary research in efforts to discover the genetic and environmental determinants of cancer as well as new approaches to cancer prevention. Special emphasis is placed on epidemiologic strategies that incorporate advances in genomics and molecular sciences. DCEG also develops data resources and analytic tools that are useful to scientists in the extramural community.

DCEG is committed to excellence in epidemiologic research and to training the next generation of cancer epidemiologists. Its fellowship programs for pre- and post-doctoral students provide opportunities for epidemiologic research that encompass the full range of cancer risk factors and research methods.

Visit DCEG's Web site at http://dceg.cancer.gov to learn more about our research and training opportunities.
