Welcome to the PHSU-MCC Partnership!
The geographic proximity and large Hispanic populations in Florida and Puerto Rico have driven the formation of an academic partnership between the Ponce Health Sciences University and Moffitt Cancer Center. The complementary expertise at both institutions provides a synergistic means of studying the cancer problem in Puerto Ricans, and in the Hispanic population in general.
Over the years, we have forged a strong working relationship founded on seamless communications and mutual support and benefits. Specifically, we have established joint programs for research, cancer outreach, cancer research education and tissue banking resulting in the development of relationships, networks and infrastructure necessary for a sustained long-term Partnership.
