The Center for Global Health (CGH) leads and coordinates research programs to accelerate knowledge for global cancer control. This includes development of innovative technologies that can be employed in global settings, advancing global cancer implementation science, addressing determinants of global cancer health disparities, increasing support for cancer clinical trials in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), and increasing understanding of cancer etiology and biology through global collaborations.
