Cancer Treatment, Education & Research in One Place

The Holden Comprehensive Cancer Center at The University of Iowa is dedicated to bringing world class cancer care and research to Iowa, the Midwest, and beyond.

Not just a floor, or a building, or even confined to a single college, Holden Cancer Center coordinates all cancer-related patient care, education, and research, throughout the University of Iowa by faculty from 38 departments in six colleges, as well as UI Hospitals and Clinics.

Founded in 1980, Holden Cancer Center:

  • Provides high-quality health care related to the prevention, detection, and treatment of cancer
  • Educates cancer professionals and the citizens of Iowa about cancer
  • Promotes interactive, high-quality cancer research

In 2000, the Cancer Center was recognized by the National Cancer Institute as an NCI-designated Cancer Center and received "comprehensive" status shortly thereafter. This comprehensive designation was renewed in 2005.

The NCI designation recognizes the research scientists, physicians, and other health care professionals for their roles in treating and caring for our patients with cancer.
