The Stony Brook University Cancer Center is currently in the application process to become a National Cancer Institute (NCI) designated Cancer Center, according to a report by Vice President of Health Sciences Kenneth Kaushansky.
The NCI currently has 71 total designated Cancer Centers within the United States. Becoming NCI designated would require Stony Brook to be on par with some of the top cancer centers in the country. The NCI will recieve Stony Brook’s application in October and evaluate the cancer center early Spring 2022, according to the report.
“Most of the NCI designated cancer centers are from very large university based programs, and most of them are from large cities,” Dr. Roger Kerzetes, the Cancer Center’s hematology/oncology fellowship program director, said. “We have all the research and clinical skills that we stand a good chance at designation.”
