The University of New Mexico Cancer Research and Treatment Center

The UNM Cancer Center is New Mexico's only National Cancer Institute-designated cancer center, and is home to the state's largest and most experienced team of cancer experts with 85 board-certified oncology physicians and more than 120 research scientists, supported by more than $50 million in grants annually. The UNM Cancer Center has major programs in research in hematologic malignancies, focusing specifically on leukemia. As the Official Cancer Center of the State of New Mexico, the Center served 7,600 new patients last year in over 90,000 patient visits, treating nearly half of all adults with cancer in the state and virtually all the children.
