Crescent Oncology Association is a grassroots peer-to-peer organization of medical oncologists across the United States, providing a professional and social platform for contemporary medical education, clinical research, skills development, and career growth.
Everything we do is oriented around empowering oncologists at every career stage through four core commitments.
Building genuine peer-to-peer connections among oncologists across academic and community settings. We grow from the ground up, driven by members who believe in the power of a strong professional network.
Advancing contemporary medical education and collaborative research across oncology subspecialties. We provide a platform for scientific exchange, clinical skills development, and emerging treatment education.
Supporting career development, grant writing, publication, and leadership for oncologists at every stage. We recognize and amplify early-career physician achievements in science and patient care.
Equipping community oncology providers with the tools and education they need to navigate new guidelines, novel therapies, and the administrative realities of modern cancer care delivery.

Built by oncologists, for oncologists. A peer-driven community committed to education, excellence, and connection.
Crescent Oncology Association was founded to empower, connect, and uplift the current and next generation of oncologists. We believe that when physicians thrive, through mentorship, education, and community, patients receive better, more informed cancer care.
We are a peer-led, volunteer-driven association with a diverse membership comprising academic physicians, community practitioners, health services researchers, and administrators. We welcome any medical professional passionate about advancing hematology and oncology through education, technology, and collaboration.
"Our single largest focus is education through integration of technology and relevant scientific exchange. We strongly believe that physician-industry partnerships can help narrow the gaps from bench-to-bedside and bring cutting-edge options to overcome oncologic conditions.", Crescent Oncology Association
