Professional Education

There is so much to learn about cancer. Primary care physicians, community nurses, and oncology specialists must continually learn about the latest research advances and treatment options. We believe knowledge is power--and the more we know, the better chance we have of winning the fight against cancer.

That is why teaching is one of the central missions of the Cancer Institute. More than 70% of all physicians practicing in Arkansas graduated from UAMS. Cancer Institute cancer specialists play an important role in teaching medical students, residents and fellows about cancer. Health-care professionals from across the state and country attend continuing education seminars at the Cancer Institute.

The Cancer Institute hosts special events to educate about cancer and cancer research. These programs include various seminars on cancer, tours of our center, and providing cancer education programs and fellowships. Please explore our educational resources to learn more about these programs or visit our online calendar to see what events are upcoming.
