Care For Communities
Science For The World
Welcome to the University of Illinois Cancer Center
Our mission is to provide innovative care designed to eliminate cancer health inequities by elevating the voices of our diverse communities as stakeholders in discovery, education, and the provision of care.
The University of Illinois Cancer Center’s vision is to eliminate cancer health inequities and improve cancer outcomes for all.

Join Our 5K!
The University of Illinois Cancer Center hosts its second annual 5K walk/run on Saturday, September 20, at Les Miller Field at UIC’s Curtis Granderson Stadium. All proceeds will benefit the Cancer Center, which gives every patient with cancer equal access to world-class treatment. The Cancer Center is part of UI Health, UIC’s academic health enterprise.

Introducing the Data Hub for Communities
The University of Illinois Cancer Center’s Data Hub for Communities is an interactive platform that allows you to explore and visualize data about the burden of cancer and its risk factors across multiple geographic levels within Illinois. Data are available to download as charts, maps, tables, and more.

Our Commitment to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
Our vision is to create a future where diversity is celebrated, where every voice is heard and valued, and where we truly make a difference in the fight against cancer. We invite everyone, regardless of their background, to join us on this journey.
