United States - Ovarian Cancer | International Cancer Genome Consortium
Project Summary
The National
Cancer Institute and the National Human Genome Research Institute
launched The Cancer Genome Atlas program to create a comprehensive atlas
of the genomic changes involved in more than 20 common types of cancer.
This large-scale, high-throughput effort is being carried out by a
network of more than 100 researchers at many organizations across the
Unitred States. The overarching goal of TCGA is to further scientific
understanding of the genomic changes in cancer, thereby improving the
ability to diagnose, treat and prevent this devastating disease. All
data generated by the TCGA research network are made rapidly available
to the research community through the TCGA Data Portal.
