Epidemiology centre

Our Cancer Epidemiology Centre (CEC) collects data through the Victorian Cancer Registry to compile statistics on cancer incidence, survival and deaths in Victoria.

Large-scale studies help us understand factors that contribute to and protect against cancer. The CEC also collaborates extensively with international researchers.
