Mission Statement
The National Cancer Institute (NC) is the lead Federal agency for cancer research. Since Congress passed the National Cancer Act in 1971, NCI has continued to collaborate with top researchers and medical facilities across the country to conduct innovative research leading to progress in cancer prevention, detection, diagnosis, and treatment. These efforts have resulted in a recent decrease in overall cancer death rate, and have helped improve and extend the lives of millions of Americans.
