Mission

The National Foundation for Cancer Research (NFCR) was founded in 1973 to support cancer research and public education relating to the prevention, early diagnosis, better treatments and ultimately, a cure for cancer. NFCR promotes and facilitates collaboration among scientists to accelerate the pace of discovery from bench to bedside. NFCR is committed to research for a cure - cures for all types of cancers. NFCR's approach is to investigate the root causes of cancer in order to understand how to stop it from forming and spreading. Our scientists focus on research areas that hold the most promise in the war against cancer including: chemoprevention, angiogenesis, antibody therapies, genetic mapping, and molecular profiling.
