The Penn State Cancer Institute, based at the Milton S. Hershey Medical Center, is part of the wider university and Penn State Health. The institute treats patients in the health system, and shares some doctors and researchers with the university’s College of Medicine faculty.
Penn State University is the majority owner of the health system and oversees research. Penn State Health financially supports the medical college and is responsible for clinical care at its locations in central Pennsylvania.
Until May 2024, Raymond Hohl, the cancer institute director, oversaw the center’s clinical and research work. Now he is in charge of the center’s education and research efforts.
