Title
NYU Cancer Institute in the City of New York
Description
The mission of the NYU Cancer Institute is to decrease and eliminate cancer as a significant health problem throughout New York, the nation, and the world, by developing and maintaining excellent programs in patient care, research, education, and prevention. What makes us different?
We are part of the NYU Medical Center, a world-renowned academic medical center located in midtown Manhattan. We are called a "matrix cancer center," meaning we are a center without walls operating within a larger medical institution. This means that if a patient who is being treated for cancer has another non-cancer medical need, such as heart disease, we have expert medical staff in place to provide that care, too. Patients can get all the care they need in one convenient location.
We are part of a larger university family. Our staff can make use not only of other resources at NYU Medical Center, but also programs at New York University's other schools, including those at the Washington Square campus in lower Manhattan. For example, our staff often consults with professionals in NYU's highly regarded mathematics and neuroscience programs.
