OncLive^® is pleased to announce that the Winship Cancer Institute of Emory University has joined its Strategic Alliance Partnership program.

Participating in the Strategic Alliance Partnership program will enable the Winship Cancer Institute of Emory University to work with the OncLive editorial team to raise awareness and enhance the outreach of its collaborative research programs aimed at cancer prevention, prediction, biomarker and therapeutic target discovery, and drug development.

The Winship Cancer Institute of Emory University is a National Cancer Institute-designated cancer center that conducts a wide range of clinical oncology services, translational research initiatives and projects, and patient and professional education programs. Winship is the coordinating center for a vast array of resources in medical, surgical, radiation oncology, diagnostic imaging, and the subspecialties of cancer care throughout Emory University.

Winship scientists and clinical investigators collaborate on a number of developing research programs, including the Cancer Cell Biology Program, which looks at tumor signaling in the context of the tumor microenvironment; the Cancer Prevention and Control Program, which focuses on the entire cancer prevention continuum from primary to secondary to tertiary prevention; the Cancer Genetics and Epigenetics Program, which seeks to enhance our understanding of fundamental genetic alterations that affect tumor development and progression and response to therapy; and the Discovery and Developmental Therapeutics Program, which researches molecular targets for cancer therapy and facilitates translational clinical trials.

Jack Lepping, president of the oncology division of Intellisphere, the publisher of OncLive, said “the Winship Cancer Institute of Emory University is one of the top 50 cancer centers in the United States, with a well-deserved reputation for the highest quality cancer research, treatment, and education programs.
