Cancer Center Amsterdam was founded as a research institute over 25 years ago by Bob Pinedo and his colleagues to pursue innovative cancer research. Today, Cancer Center Amsterdam is an academic oncology center encompassing all cancer care, research and education at Amsterdam UMC. It is also aligned with the Cancer Center Amsterdam Foundation, which raises funds to empower promising developments in oncology research and patient care at Amsterdam UMC.
Cancer Center Amsterdam is led by an Executive Board with five members. They are assisted by a support staff. We also have a research board which advises on all research-related policies.
