Welcome to the Indiana University Melvin and Bren Simon Cancer Center. We know that thinking about cancer can be worrisome. The good news is that today there are more than 10 million cancer survivors. We are fortunate for scientific advances in the prevention, detection, and treatment of cancer, but so much information and research can be hard to understand. We have designed this Web site to help answer your questions about cancer whether you or a family member have just been diagnosed with cancer or you want to learn about how to reduce your chance of getting cancer.

This site is a collaboration between the Indiana University Melvin and Bren Simon Cancer Center, Walther Cancer Foundation, and the Indiana University schools of nursing, informatics, and medicine.
