Modeling to guide public health research and priorities

Learn more about Colorectal Cancer Mortality Projections

CISNET is a consortium of NCI-sponsored investigators that use statistical modeling to improve our understanding of cancer control interventions in prevention, screening, and treatment on population trends in incidence and mortality. These models can be used to guide public health research and priorities.

CISNET's projects focus on the following four cancer sites:
