• The Cancer Biology Graduate Program was established at the McArdle Laboratory for Cancer Research as the first graduate program in the United States to offer a degree in basic cancer research.
  • The program now includes more than 50 faculty trainers from multiple departments including Oncology, Medicine, Human Oncology, Cell and Regenerative Biology, Medical Microbiology and Immunology, and others.
  • Through the graduate curriculum, students are introduced to the body of knowledge that has been derived directly from experiments on the induction, properties, and therapy of cancer, and receive the necessary background to conduct independent research.
