A Welcome from our Chairman

Dear friend,

The Department of Radiation and Cellular Oncology at the University of Chicago is recognized as one of the leading academic programs in the country, offering innovative, state-of-the-art radiotherapy services in a setting of multidisciplinary cancer care at several key locations throughout the metropolitan Chicago area. Our molecular and radiobiology research facilities at our Hyde Park campus are engaged in a broad range of cancer research programs with support from Federal and private sources.

U.S. News and World Report magazine regularly ranks the University of Chicago Hospitals Cancer Program as one of the Top Ten programs in the USA, and UCH is the only hospital in Illinois making USN&WR’s Honor Roll of “America’s Best Hospitals.”

Our website strives to offer the latest information on our radiation oncology faculty, clinical services, cancer research initiatives, and medical education programs. If this website does not have the information you are looking for, please contact us directly.

Sincerely,

Ralph R. Weichselbaum, MD
Daniel K. Ludwig Professor and Chairman
