This includes the research programs run and supported by the National Cancer Institute, plus the related research programs of the other national research institutes. It also includes an expanded and more intense research program aimed at preventing cancers caused by exposure to carcinogens at work or in the environment. Second, the Program includes all the other programs and activities that the Institute carries out.
