Welcome to the PPS-OC
The Princeton Physical Sciences-Oncology Center (PPS-OC) is an interdisciplinary research center which seeks to undertake innovative new approaches to understanding the physical laws that govern the emergence and behavior of cancer.
The PPS-OC brings together a team of experts from the fields of physics, engineering, chemistry, biochemistry and oncology in order to catalyze a fundamentally new understanding of cancer, based on a physical sciences-based thematic approach.
The PPS-OC includes collaborations with partnering institutions: the University of California-San Francisco, the Johns Hopkins University, the University of California-Santa Cruz, and the Salk Institute for Biological Studies.
Funded by the National Cancer Institute, the Princeton PS-OC operates within a collaborative network of twelve other Physical Sciences–Oncology Centers.
