Beyond ongoing support of a very strong Community Outreach & Engagement program, UMGCCC also encourages Pilot Grant applications which will demonstrate our commitment to expansion and collaboration within the community, the catchment area , and the Cancer Center Network with our affiliate hospitals, especially for pragmatic clinical trials.
