Indigenous communities face some of the greatest cancer health disparities, higher mortality rates and persistent challenges in health equity.

To tackle these challenges, the Center for Indigenous Cancer Research (CICR) at Roswell Park fuses multidisciplinary expertise and generational knowledge to create a culturally-attuned continuum of cancer care from prevention through survivorship.

Our goal is simple and ambitious: Reduce the impact of cancer on Indigenous communities regionally, nationally and internationally.
