The Rosalind and Morris Goodman Cancer Research Centre (GCRC) conducts internationally recognized fundamental and translational research in all areas of cancer. These research activities contribute to:

1. improving the molecular understanding of cancer;
2. improving disease management;
3. training the next generation of cancer researchers; and
4. conveying the importance of cancer research to the community.

The fundamental research approach adopted by the Centre is focused on better understanding the mechanisms involved in cancer initiation and progression and the pressing need to identify targets for clinical drug development. The research model involves identifying priority themes and establishing a critical mass of expertise within each theme. These themes include Breast Cancer, Metabolism and Cancer, Stem Cells and Signaling, DNA Damage Response, and Embryonic Development and Cancer.

The GCRC has adopted a proactive and innovative approach to training the next generation of cancer researchers. In conjunction with the Experimental Medicine graduate program, the GCRC has implemented a specialized program, which is called the 鈥淥ncology Stream鈥�. This program was conceived to give trainees the opportunity to acquire an integrated and broader perspective of basic and clinical research as it relates to cancer. Among other cancer-related courses, the students take a mandatory course: EXMD 635D1/EXMD 635D2 鈥� Experimental/Clinical Oncology. This comprehensive course was created to expose trainees to a spectrum of different cancers, with topics ranging from diagnosis to current treatment and future drug development.
