The Cancer Prevention Fellowship Program (CPFP) is a renowned postdoctoral training program providing a strong foundation in the field of cancer prevention research to a multidisciplinary team of scientists and clinicians.

This comprehensive postdoctoral program offers opportunities for cutting-edge research in cancer prevention and control. It’s a chance to research in the basic, quantitative, social, and behavioral sciences, and in clinical cancer prevention, which have been the hallmarks of the CPFP since it began.

Fellows may also propose big data and informatics-related research projects. For example, former CPFP fellow, Dr. Jennifer Moss, worked with the SEER program on ways to integrate data without compromising patient privacy.
