UPMC Cancer Centers works in tandem with the University of Pittsburgh Cancer Institute (UPCI), which comprises the academic and research activities for cancer at the University of Pittsburgh and the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, to offer patients the latest advances in cancer prevention, detection, diagnosis and treatment.
The Magee/UPCI Breast Program's particular areas of research focus on the mechanisms of estrogen action in the etiology, prevention and treatment of breast cancer. We also have an interest in the development and use of a human mammary epithelial culture system to investigate the effects of estrogen and selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs).
For more detailed information on the Program's research activities, including current research, accomplishments and future directions, visit the Magee Breast Program at the University of Pittsburgh Cancer Institute.
