Our mission is to reduce cancer's burden in Minnesota and throughout the world.

The Masonic Cancer Center creates a collaborative research environment focused on the causes, prevention, detection, and treatment of cancer; applying that knowledge to improve quality of life for patients and survivors; and sharing discoveries with other scientists, students, professionals, and our community. 


Through the Community Outreach and Engagement Team, we strive to reduce the burden of cancer in Minnesota by engaging communities and providing them access to knowledge and information about cancer prevention, treatment, survivorship, and clinical research opportunities.


We invite you to learn more about our Survivorship Program in particular to access free, in person and online programs, events, and resources, by visiting survivorship.umn.edu
