UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center

UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center is more than a center for treatment and research. It’s a mission — that together, we will work toward a deep, transformative understanding of cancer, from the molecular level to the societal, and translate that knowledge into improved treatments and patient outcomes. It’s a promise that, with your help, we will push scientific discovery and create novel therapies.

UNC Lineberger stands preeminent among institutions conducting cancer research and delivering compassionate care. The National Cancer Institute has designated only 51 centers as comprehensive, and of those UNC Lineberger is one of fewer than five currently rated “exceptional.” We are the only public comprehensive cancer center in North Carolina, serving all of its citizens through the game-changing cancer research we conduct and the critical, life-saving care we provide.
