Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center has formed an academic cooperation with the Jagiellonian University in Kraków.

The collaboration will see the two centers exchanging staff, students and scientific resources to undertake basic, translational and clinical research in order to advance the development of cancer therapies.

The agreement grew out of a July 2018 visit by Polish Secretary of State Anna Maria Anders to Roswell Park. Four Roswell Park faculty leaders, joined by Anders, recently traveled to Kraków to initiate the collaboration: Kunle Odunsi, deputy director, chair of gynecologic oncology and executive director of the Center for Immunotherapy; Pawel Kalinski, vice chair for translational research and Rustum Family Professor for Molecular Therapeutics and Translational Research; Agnieszka Witkiewicz, director of the Center for Personalized Medicine and chief for research in the Department of Pathology; and Danuta Kozbor, associate professor of immunology and microbiology.

The agreement is effective immediately, and could see exchange of students and faculty between the two centers as early as spring 2019.
