Olika personer i sjukhusmiljö

We aim to be the leading cancer centre with patients at the core of our focus.

Uppsala Comprehensive Cancer Centre (UCCC) is part of Uppsala University Hospital and is accredited by the Organisation of European Cancer Institutes (OECI). This means that we operate in a quality-certified environment where healthcare, research, and education work together to provide patients with the best possible cancer care.

We work in close collaboration with patients to provide high-quality, equitable, and accessible cancer care. Our goal is for patients and family members to feel safe, informed, and actively involved in their care.

Using data, we take a structured and process-driven approach to continuously improved cancer care, research, and development.

UCCC consists of an extensive network of clinicians and researchers with specialised expertise, supported by a robust research infrastructure. This enables wide-ranging, high-quality cancer research, allowing ideas to move swiftly from the lab through clinical trials to new treatments.
