Mission Statement

Our mission is to support research on statistical and mathematical models to understand the impact of cancer control interventions and economic, health care delivery, and utilization factors on the cancer burden. We use mathematical modeling to develop, evaluate and improve estimates of cancer progress measures, such as survival, prevalence, and quality of life and develop software for integration of modeling into data systems.
