We analyze and disseminate population-based cancer statistics and identify gaps and opportunities in the delivery of cancer prevention, early detection, and treatment.
The American Cancer Society's (ACS) Surveillance Research program is led by Rebecca Siegel, MPH, and has these specific objectives:
Each year, we produce the ACS flagship report, Cancer Facts & Figures, along with its companion article, Cancer Statistics, published in the ACS scientific journal CA: A Cancer Journal for Clinicians.
These widely cited reports present the most current rates and trends in cancer incidence, mortality, and survival, as well as the most up-to-date information on symptoms, prevention, early detection, and treatment.
The epidemiologists on the ACS Surveillance Research team regularly update multiple Cancer Facts & Figures reports, an interactive statistics website, and a website to learn and export data about cancer around the world.
The Surveillance team analyzes and interprets data to produce these Facts & Figures reports:
Led by Kimberly D. Miller, MPH, the Cancer Statistics Center allows you to explore, interact with, and share such cancer statistics as:

The Cancer Atlas was created by The American Cancer Society, the International Agency for Research on Cancer, and the Union for International Cancer Control, and it's now led by Tyler Kratzer, MPH.
