Research
The Yale Cancer Center Thoracic Oncology Program is focused on developing an active, robust basic research effort that spans clinical research, basic and translational science, and population sciences. General research themes of interest to the Program include risk stratification and screening for lung cancer and molecular characterization of lung cancers.
The partnership created between the basic science investigators in the Yale Cancer Center laboratories and our clinicians enables us to focus on translational research. Clinicians are continually sharing insights from the clinic with researchers in laboratories to better focus our research efforts. This collaboration creates the best possible innovations for our patients.
