The Center for Cancer Research (CCR) is the largest division of the National Cancer Institutes intramural research program and comprises nearly 250 basic and clinical research groups located on two campuses outside of Washington DC. The CCR is home to an extraordinary group of scientists and clinicians exploring the cutting-edge of cancer and HIV/AIDS research. Our scientists work on a wide spectrum of biological and biomedical problems ranging from visualizing and understanding the structure of individual genes and proteins, developing novel methods for drug discovery, to inventing biomedical devices and technology and creating innovative ways to treat patients in the National Institutes of Health Clinical Center.
