The Huntsman Cancer Institute at the University of Utah has a mission to understand cancer from its beginnings, to use that knowledge in the creation and improvement of new treatments, to relieve the suffering of cancer patients, and to provide education about cancer risk, prevention, and care. It received its NCI designation as a cancer center in 1986. (NCI Thesaurus)
