Welcome

The cancer centers represented by the Association of American Cancer Institutes (AACI) form America’s cancer research infrastructure and are the hubs of critical discoveries, treatment advances and improvements in patient care. AACI and the Cancer Center Administrators Forum (CCAF) jointly formulated the program for the 2010 AACI/CCAF Annual Meeting, to be held at The Westin Chicago River North, October 3 –5.

This three-day event convenes AACI cancer center directors and executive-level administrators with leaders of national cancer research and advocacy groups, industry, and government health agencies to develop solutions to common challenges and to share best practices. No other program presents information on cancer research and patient care issues as they pertain to the leaders of the nation’s cancer centers and provides them a forum to discuss common issues with their peers.

Your participation in this national meeting helps us chart a course for AACI’s work on behalf of its cancer center network. We look forward to seeing you in Chicago!
