    AbstractTraining programs in surgical oncology have been developed at a number of institutions in the United States, employing guidelines developed by the Society of Surgical Oncology. Eight training programs have been approved by the Society. The program at the UMDNJ-New Jersey Medical School is described in detail with comments on its evolution and current methods of training. The extensive advanced training in cancer surgery is complemented by rotations in medical oncology, radiation oncology, surgical pathology, and by both laboratory and clinical research experience. In addition, a course in the basic science of oncology is given. Increasing numbers of surgeons-in-training are applying to such programs. A list of selected publications in surgical oncology is provided.
