* Summary:

** Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center is America's first cancer center founded in 1898 by Dr. Roswell Park. His revolutionary model of a “multidisciplinary approach” to cancer – with scientists and clinicians working in concert and collaboratively has become the standard by which all modern-day comprehensive cancer centers are measured.
Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center was among the first centers to receive National Cancer Institute (NCI) designation in 1974 and is the only upstate New York facility to hold the NCI of "comprehensive cancer center". Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center was a founding member of the prestigious National Comprehensive Cancer Network. Many Roswell Park faculty serve on the NCCN panels that developed the Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology – the internationally recognized standards for clinical policy in oncology, and the most comprehensive, most frequently updated clinical practice guidelines available in any area of medicine.
Over its long history, Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center has made fundamental contributions to reducing the cancer burden and has successfully maintained an exemplary leadership role in setting the national standards for cancer care, research and education.
Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center became a Public Benefit Corporation pursuant to legislation in 1999. Before that, Roswell Park was part of the New York State Department of Health. Becoming a Public Benefit Corporation has provided the benefit of administrative autonomy while maintaining substantial financial support from New York State.
As a Public Benefit Corporation, Roswell Park is a public employer and is covered by the Public Employees’ Fair Employment Act. As such, most Roswell Park employees have the right to union representation. Roswell Park employees in unionized positions are covered by collective bargaining agreements between the State of New York and one of several unions representing employees across the State.
Over the last decade, Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center has undergone major growth, adding over 1,000 new jobs, initiating one of the nation’s first hospital facilities dedicated to Phase I cancer research studies, and setting itself apart as a leader in surgical robotics, vitamin D research, immunotherapy and vaccine therapy, personalized medicine, studies targeting tumor microenvironment and cancer prevention, and the development and testing of new agents and technology.

Committing the infrastructure, intellectual capital and necessary resources to convert its scientific discoveries into products/applications, Roswell Park has established a number of biotech spin-off companies, and formed strategic partnerships with investigators and centers throughout the world.
The campus spans 28 acres in downtown Buffalo and consists of 15 buildings with about 2 million square feet of space. Roswell Park’s hospital building, completed in 1998, houses a comprehensive diagnostic and treatment center. In addition, the organization built a new medical research complex and renovated existing education and research space to support its future growth and expansion. The latest addition to the campus is the new 150,000 square foot Clinical Sciences Center.
