Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center


Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center is the world’s oldest and largest private institution devoted to the prevention, treatment, and cure of cancer.  Their dedicated surgical team of clinicians and researchers understands cancer and how it affects patients with musculoskeletal cancer.  The Sloan Kettering Institute is the basic science research arm of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.  Basic research at the center is organized as five research programs:  molecular biology, cell biology, cellular biochemistry and biophysics, immunology, and molecular pharmacology and therapeutics.  A rotation is provided in Orthopaedic Oncology at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center to each of our PGY-3 residents.  In this rotation, the resident is exposed to all aspects of the initial evaluation, workup, treatment, and follow-up care of primary and metastatic bone tumors as well as soft tissue sarcomas.
