Cancer Risk Program    

What is the Cancer Risk Program?

The Cancer Institute offers free education programs for healthcare professional and the general public. The Cancer Institute’s cancer risk professionals provide the most advanced information available about cancer risk, cancer genetics and genetic testing. Risk assessment referral resources are also provided to interested individuals. In addition, Cancer Risk Program staff serves as a resource for physicians seeking assistance with medical management of high risk patients. Staff can facilitate communication between physicians and entities that offer expert advice and services.
