The Comprehensive Cancer Center at UChicago has been a leader in cancer research for more than 50 years. The Center is committed to exploring and developing innovative ways to prevent and reduce the devastating effects of cancer. Recognizing that there may never be a universal cure for all cancers, they work to transform this deadly disease into a chronic ailment. UChicago is now moving forward to build a 500,000 square foot facility in Chicago’s southside, completely dedicated to cancer treatment.
