Disease Working Groups
The Dan L Duncan Comprehensive Cancer Center also has disease working groups focused on particular cancer types. These multi-disciplinary groups bring together clinicians and investigators to translate scientific findings into coordinated patient care. These groups may work within or across our formal research programs.
