其具体目的是刺激和促进癌症的发展。 在加州北部限定区域内的防治研究和 通过维持和加强有效的联盟 成立于1974年，名为北加州癌症计划。 在其存在的第一个十年内，这个独特的财团患上了癌症 中心已经将不同的个人和团体聚集在一起 对癌症控制有共同兴趣的机构。这些机构 个人包括大学、私人研究基金会、州政府 卫生部门，区域公共卫生机构，卫生维护 组织、基于社区的组织、医生、科学家和其他 专业人士和感兴趣的非专业人士。 这项提案将在四年内支持癌症控制研究活动。 方案领域：1)多学科/多机构实验室 直接应用于癌症治疗、癌症流行病学的研究 和癌症预防；2)多学科、多机构癌症 临床试验研究直接应用于减少发病率和 已经诊断为癌症的患者的死亡率；3) 多学科、多机构的流行病学研究 在北加州限定区域内的人口和 内华达州北部；4)多学科、多机构癌症 专注于检测、癌症预防和癌症教育研究 在同一定义的区域内的人口。

The specific aim is to stimulate and facilitate the development of cancer control research within the defined region of Northern California and Northern Nevada by maintaining and strengthening the effective consortium established in 1974 as the Northern California Cancer Program. Within the first decade of its existence, this unique consortium cancer center has already brought together a diverse group of individuals and institutions with a common interest in cancer control. These institutions and individuals include universities, private research foundations, state health departments, regional public health agencies, health maintenance organizations, community-based organizations, physicians, scientists, other professionals and interested lay persons. This proposal will support cancer control research activities in four progammatic areas: 1) multi-disciplinary/multi-institutional laboratory research with direct applications to cancer treatment, cancer epidemiology and cancer prevention; 2) multi-disciplinary and multi-institutional cancer clinical trials research with direct applications to reducing morbidity and mortality among patients already diagnosed as having cancer; 3) multi-disciplinary and multi-institutional epidemiologic research focused upon populations within the defined region of Northern California and Northern Nevada; and 4) multi-disciplinaryt and multi-institutional cancer detection, cancer prevention and cancer education research focused upon populations within this same defined region.
