The Gerald Bronfman Department of Oncology delivers excellence and leadership in four key areas: education and training; cutting-edge cancer research; engagement with the broader scientific community, policymakers and the community at large; and advancing cancer care.
We offer medical students an introduction to the field of oncology and provide residency training programs and fellowships in medical, radiation and surgical oncology.听
Our research spans eight domains including: basic research to better understand at the molecular level the development and growth of tumours; development and testing of novel therapeutics; clinical research听testing the effectiveness of new cancer treatment therapies; improving the delivery of radiotherapy; genetic studies of inherited susceptibility to cancer; epidemiologic studies of cancer causes, prevention, and prognosis; studies aimed at improving the emotional well-being and quality of life of cancer patients and their families, and managing pain and other symptoms of the disease; processes for continued improvements in the quality and cost-effectiveness of cancer care. Research findings are disseminated through publications in scientific journals and presentations at conferences, and many of our members are active on provincial, national and international committees which help shape cancer policies.
While progress has been made, cancer remains a significant challenge, impacting half of all Canadians and Quebecers.听 We aim to train future cancer care specialists and deepen our understanding of the disease so that we can prevent it as well as improve patient outcomes. However, these endeavours require substantial resources and your support is crucial in advancing our mission. Please consider donating to our cause.
