The laboratories of Gerald Bronfman Department of Oncology faculty members who conduct basic and translational research in cancer are located at 污污草莓视频 (Rosalind and Morris Goodman Cancer Research Institute) and its affiliated hospitals (Jewish General Hospital, 污污草莓视频 University Health Centre). Research interests are extensive in scope and cover various types of cancers including breast, prostate, colorectal, ovarian, neurological and pediatric cancers. In addition to research, faculty members are also involved in the teaching and training of the next generation of cancer researchers.听

Rosalind and Morris Goodman Cancer Research Institute
Research at the 听(GCI) focuses on the biochemical, cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in tumourigenesis. A wide range of areas are under investigation, including signal transduction, differentiation, cell proliferation and apoptosis. Many of the cancer researchers located at the hospital-based laboratories are associate members of the GCI.

Jewish General Hospital (Lady Davis Institute/Segal Cancer Centre)
At the Jewish General Hospital basic and translational cancer research is conducted at the / (LDI/SCC). Research areas include cancer progression, cancer genomics, targeted new therapies, novel molecular targets, cell and gene therapy in cancer, cancer prevention and cancer genetics. Research is facilitated by the presence of a number of core facilities including the cell processing centre, flow cytometry facility, clinical proteomics facility, pathology research facility, high performance computing facility, peptide synthesis laboratory, cell imaging facility and the Clinical Research Unit for Phase I and early Phase II clinical trials. Many of the researchers at the Segal Cancer Centre are members of the 污污草莓视频 Centre for Translational Research in Cancer (MCTRC).

Cancer Research Program (CRP) of the Research Institute of the 污污草莓视频 University Health Centre (RI-MUHC)
The (CRP) is composed of three parts in a new state-of-the-art facility that includes: 1) basic cancer research at the Centre for Translational Biology (CTB), a building connected to the hospital, that houses 120 principle investigators including 26 CRP members; 2) clinical cancer research at the Centre for Innovative Medicine (CIM), which occupies an entire floor of the hospital and includes 12 phase I trial beds; and 3) evaluative cancer research at the Centre for Outcomes Research and Evaluation (CORE), that houses 80 investigators including 20 who study cancer. All three components together constitute the CRP and are located side-by-side at the MUHC Glen Site. Integration of all three groups results in research that is patient centered and incorporates basic, clinical and evaluative science. The activities of the CRP are supported by several Technology Platforms that include: Flow Cytometer and Cell sorting, Cellular Imaging, Tissue Banking, Proteomics and Systems Medicine, Microscopy, Molecular Pathology and Small Animal Imaging. As a result, the program can pursue precision care research especially with the MUHC Cedars Cancer Centre within the same complex. The focus of the CRP is on the mechanisms of etiology (hereditary predisposition), cancer spread (metastasis) and progression of disease. Research areas include the identification of new markers and therapeutic targets, gene therapy, tumour suppressor genes, angiogenesis and radiosensitivity.
