Founded in 1898, Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center (RP) is the first facility in the world dedicated specifically to research into the cause, prevention, and treatment of cancer. A strong tradition in surgical oncology at RP began with the institute’s visionary founder, Dr. Roswell Park. That surgical tradition continues today in an academic Department of Surgical Oncology that is a core component of one of the nation’s leading cancer research and treatment centers.
