One of the first eight centers to receive NCI-Designated Cancer Center status, the University of Southern California Norris Comprehensive Cancer Center (USC Norris) is a leader in cancer research, education, and patient-centered oncology care. USC Norris’s vision is to reduce the burden of cancer for all people. The center’s location in the fourth most diverse city in the United States provides an opportunity and a mandate to lead in research that addresses the cancer-related needs and cancer disparities among diverse communities and special populations. To realize this vision, USC Norris members are organized into five multidisciplinary research programs spanning from basic science to translational and clinical science and population science. These highly collaborative programs of laboratory, clinical, and population-based research drive scientific discoveries and foster translation to the clinic and community. USC Norris’s cancer training programs are part of the fabric of these efforts, creating a diverse pipeline for the next generation of cancer scientists and clinicians, while its Office of Community Outreach and Engagement is the vehicle by which they understand, engage, and serve the needs of the underserved communities in Los Angeles county and beyond.
