30 Years of Cancer Survivorship Research

July 2026

This year marks the 30th anniversary of the National Cancer Institute's Office of Cancer Survivorship (OCS). OCS has worked to advance research and care that addresses the physical, psychological, social, and economic effects of cancer and its treatment. Housed within NCI's Division of Cancer Control and Population Sciences (DCCPS), OCS continues to support research, resources, and collaborations that improve the quality and length of survival for people living with and beyond cancer. Complementing the work of OCS, the Clinical and Translational Epidemiology Branch within DCCPS' Epidemiology and Genomics Research Program stimulates, promotes, and supports cancer epidemiologic research to identify clinical, genomic, and lifestyle factors that improve outcomes for cancer survivors.
