VCORCDP Mentors
At the heart of VCORCDP is the mentored research project, and the availability of committed, experienced faculty mentors remains a strength of the program. Our faculty mentors represent diverse disciplines of oncology and their expertise spans the three major domains of research in which our scholars conduct their training and investigations: Clinical Trials and Drug Development, Translational Cancer Biology, and Cancer Health Outcomes and Epidemiology.
