To date, CancerIQ has raised over $26 million to deliver on our mission, with our Series B funding round led by Merck Global Health Innovation Fund and Amgen Ventures.Our team is made up of a committed, all-in group of people who are as driven to ending cancer as we know it as the providers and patients we serve.
This has led to a growing network of over 200 clinical locations across the country, with a robust ecosystem of partners in the diagnostic and genomics space behind us. But we’re committed to scaling quickly. In this era of tremendous progress against cancer, we’re looking for people to be just as tremendously committed to their work at CancerIQ.
