Collaboration Our future success in reducing and managing cancer in the U.S. rests on our ability to work together to address the disease in an integrated fashion. This includes working with experts in technology development, information management, basic science, translational and clinical research, and healthcare delivery. No one sector of the cancer community can bring about change in isolation.
As the leader of the National Cancer Program, NCI serves as the coordinator of diverse efforts and disciplines to effectively bring about better means of preventing, diagnosing, and treating cancer. Success depends on using everyone's skills and talents to develop and deliver new approaches to overcome this disease. NCI works to build partnerships with both the public and private sectors. We value collaborations with philanthropic and advocacy organizations that are on the leading edge of science, technology, and community networking. We want to combine the infrastructure of the government-supported research with the innovation of the private sector. Through productive partnerships, we will reach mutual goals, and patients will benefit.
