In June, 2002, The City College of New York (CCNY) and Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) established a Partnership based on mutual cancer research and training objectives. The Partnership is funded by the National Cancer Institute (NCI). The primary goals of the partnership are to:
• Encourage and support basic and applied cancer research initiated by CCNY investigators.
• Encourage and support research on health disparities and cancer burden in minority populations initiated by MSK investigators.
