Sidney Kimmel Cancer Center at Jefferson University Hospitals

Jefferson has been a Philadelphia area leader in oncology research, patient treatment and cancer education services for almost 25 years.  Initially a single cancer center with a staff of 30, today the Sidney Kimmel Cancer Center (SKCC) at Jefferson  includes 32 hospital and practice member institutions staffed by hundreds of oncology researchers and physicians from around the globe.  No one wants to hear they have cancer, but it’s comforting to know that if you are one of the millions of Americans diagnosed with this disease every year, Jefferson’s SKCC is one the best hospitals in the nation to seek treatment.

Sidney Kimmel Center Consortium

At any given time, hundreds of research studies are under way at cancer centers, ranging from basic laboratory research to clinical assessments of new treatments.  Many of these studies are collaborative, involving other cancer centers or other partners in industry and the community.  The NCI designates these collaborative partnerships as Consortium Cancer Centers. SKCC’s Consortium includes the SKCC hospital network, Drexel University and Lankenau Institute for Medical Research (LIMR). Drexel brings expertise to the Consortium through expert proposal development and cutting edge electronic research administration. LIMR contributes exciting new studies about disease modifier genes, nanotechnology therapies and pharmacological agents.
