Proper Citation: BC Cancer Agency (RRID:SCR_004201)
Description: A portal that provides a province-wide, population-based cancer control program for the residents of British Columbia and the Yukon. The BC Cancer Agency''s mandate covers the spectrum of cancer care, from prevention and screening, to diagnosis, treatment, and through to rehabilitation. The BC Cancer Agency''s mandate is driven by a three-fold mission: 1. To reduce the incidence of cancer; 2. To reduce the mortality rate of people with cancer; 3. To improve the quality of life of people living with cancer. This mission drives everything we do, including providing screening, diagnosis and care, setting treatment standards, and conducting research into causes of, and cures for, cancer. The BC Cancer Agency operates five regional cancer centers, providing assessment and diagnostic services, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and supportive care. Each of the BC Cancer Agency''s centers delivers cancer treatment based on provincial standards and guidelines established by the Agency. We work in partnership with communities to provide a network of chemotherapy clinics so patients can receive care closer to home. Research is an essential part of the BC Cancer Agency''s mission to not only find the causes of cancer, but to find better treatments for prolonged life and better quality of life. With direct links between the BC Cancer Agency''s physicians and researchers at our five centers, the Deeley Research Centre (located in Victoria) and the BC Cancer Agency''s Research Centre (located in Vancouver), we can quickly translate new discoveries into clinical applications. The BC Cancer Agency''s Research Centre includes eight specialty laboratories including the Genome Sciences Centre, and the Terry Fox Laboratory. The BC Cancer Foundation raises funds for cancer research and enhancements to care at the BC Cancer Agency.
