NCI Cancer ProgramsΒΆ
In recent years, the National Cancer Institute, in collaboration with other institutes within NIH, has invested in the production and analysis of several large datasets. The ISB-CGC platform is funded by NCI in an effort to make these data more accessible and usable.
The initial goal of the ISB-CGC was to host the data produced by The Cancer Genome Atlas program. We are now expanding to host data from TARGET (a pediatric cancer program), and will in the future host data from newer projects supported by the Cancer Genome Characterization Initiative.
Please see the individual sections below for more information about these individual, large-scale programs.
