The Jackson Laboratory Cancer Center (JAXCC) is an independent, nonprofit biomedical research institution established in 1929 under the then-novel premise that cancer is a genetic disease. JAXCC has been an NCI-Designated Cancer Center since 1983, focusing on deciphering the complex genetics of cancer and designing precision models of the disease. It is based in Bar Harbor Maine, with a genomic medicine institute in Farmington, Connecticut, and facilities in Augusta and Ellsworth, Maine, in Sacramento, California, and in Shanghai, China.
JAXCC’s flagship research program, Genetic Models for Precision Cancer Medicine, combines the center’s technical and computational expertise with its unique knowledge of mouse models and human cancer genomics to identify precise therapeutic interventions and prevent and treat cancer.
