Conclusion

Everything that happens at NCI — in its laboratories and in those laboratories it supports across this great country — is ultimately about cancer patients: making new discoveries and translating new knowledge into interventions that prevent, detect, and treat cancer. As much as we are entering a new era of science and medicine, it is clear that we must orient NCI in a way to facilitate a certain future when cancer is a manageable disease. There is little doubt about where the National Cancer Institute must lead. The questions that remain to be answered in the coming years center around the resources and, therefore, the time it will take to get there.
