The Research

The nation’s top researchers are working together in our hospitals and research centers in Ohio and Florida. Advances are happening in our labs and at our patient bedsides within the widest range of cancer specialties: colon cancer to breast cancer, pediatric cancers to prostate cancer. What we learn through our research in one area adds translational knowledge to the overall field of cancer research and ultimately puts us one step closer to a cure.

The Community

Every year, VeloSano brings together this special community of participants, volunteers, donors, partners and dedicated cancer researchers motivated by the tremendous need for better treatment options, outcomes and ultimately more cures for cancer. We could not be transforming cancer care without the efforts of this entire community who are invested in and remain 100% for the cure.
