ROAR (Radiation Oncology Accelerated Research), began in 2009 with hope for a world without the devastating effects of cancer - in our lifetime. Your donation to cancer research is matched $1 for $1 by the physicians at the UAB Department of Radiation Oncology. Your $1 donation can then be leveraged to generate $14 or more from federal or other sources. UAB sets the pace for turning research discoveries into patient treatments.
