Collaborations
Other institutions' participation is an essential part of cooperative group research at the Robert H. Lurie Comprehensive Cancer Center. We value our partnership with our National Cancer Trial (NCTN) affiliate network. Together, we hope to advance our collective strength in the area of oncology research.
