Dana-Farber/Harvard Cancer Center (DF/HCC) is committed to building a diverse and well-trained cancer research workforce. Our member institutions—Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Boston Children’s Hospital, Brigham and Women’s Hospital, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Harvard Medical School, Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, and Massachusetts General Hospital—offer a variety of innovative programs and training opportunities to attract and retain the “best and brightest” to careers in cancer research, treatment, and care. From fellowships to research training programs, opportunities span the basic, clinical, and population sciences at pre- and post-doctorate levels, as well as programs for graduate, undergraduate, and high-school students. The Center also offers career development opportunities for researchers already within the DF/HCC community.
