About Us

The Prostate Cancer Research Institute (PCRI) was founded in 1996 by medical oncologists Stephen B. Strum and Mark C. Scholz, with support from the Daniel Freeman Hospital Foundation in Southern California. Dr. Strum and Dr. Scholz are internationally recognized prostate cancer specialists.

The objective of PCRI is to educate patients and their families about prostate cancer. This includes new advances in diagnosis, staging, treatments and available resources. PCRI believes that a patient who understands his disease and treatment is empowered to communicate more effectively with his physicians and obtain a better outcome. PCRI intends to use all available communication tools to accomplish this most important objective.
