Advanced Technology Research Facility on the FNLCR campus.

Among the many cancer research laboratories operated by NCI, the Frederick National Laboratory for Cancer Research (FNLCR) is unique in that it is a Federally Funded Research and Development Center—one of 41 such centers in the United States that operate under a broad charter to respond rapidly and efficiently to meet the research and development needs of their government sponsors. The Frederick National Lab is overseen by NCI and operated by Leidos Biomedical Research, Inc. Located on NCI’s Frederick, Maryland, campus, the FNLCR combines private sector business practices with government infrastructure to conduct research in genetics, proteomics, bioinformatics, biomedical computing, animal sciences, and clinical operations.
