The UCLA Health Prostate Cancer Program is a designated Specialized Program of Research Excellence (SPORE) site funded by the National Cancer Institute. The goal of the UCLA SPORE in Prostate Cancer is to contribute significantly to progress in the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of prostate cancer. These aims are accomplished through multiple and diverse research projects, both in basic science and population-based research, which can be rapidly translated into clinical applications. The SPORE also operates the Career Enhancement Program and the Developmental Research Program, through which the field of prostate cancer research will be expanded and new avenues of translational research are developed.
