Pacific Meso Center

The Pacific Meso Center's Mission is to better serve a growing number of mesothelioma victims by supporting the first-of-its-kind in the nation research lab which provides laboratory-to-the-bedside research that improves mesothelioma victims' lives and longevity, particularly for those that approach malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) as a chronic, treatable disease.

Established in 2002, the Pacific Meso Center at PHLBI is a 501(c)(3) non-profit institution focused on the treatment and prevention of malignant pleural mesothelioma. The Instutute supports the research efforts of leading mesothelioma surgeon Dr. Robert Cameron, who advocates the lung-sparing Pleurectomy/Decortication surgery for patients diagnosed with malignant pleural mesothelioma.
