Roundtable/Forum

National Cancer Policy Forum

The National Cancer Policy Forum serves as a trusted venue to identify high-priority policy issues in cancer research and care and to work collaboratively to examine those issues through convening activities focused on opportunities for action. The Forum addresses policy issues relevant to the goal of reducing the cancer burden through basic, clinical, and translational research; prevention; and by improving the care and outcomes for those diagnosed with cancer. Forum activities inform the cancer community and the public about critical policy issues through workshops and published reports.
