 The
Dean and Betty Gallo Prostate Cancer Center (GPCC) was established with
the goal of eradicating prostate cancer and improving the lives of men
at risk for the disease through research, treatment, education and
prevention. GPCC was founded in the memory of Dean Gallo, a beloved New
Jersey Congressman who died tragically of prostate cancer diagnosed at
an advanced stage. GPCC unites a team of outstanding researchers and
clinicians who are committed to high-quality basic research, translation
of innovative research to the clinic, exceptional patient care, and
improving public education and awareness of prostate cancer. GPCC is a
center of excellence of the Cancer Institute of New Jersey, which is the
only NCI-designated cancer center in the state. GPCC efforts will be
focused in four major areas: (i) Basic, Clinical and Translational
Research, (ii) Comprehensive Patient Care, (iii) Epidemiology and Cancer
Control, and (iv) Education and Outreach.
