Ontario Institute for Cancer Research
The Ontario Institute for *** Research is an independent, not-for-profit translational *** research institute funded by the Government of Ontario. The Institute’s focus is on the translation of discoveries into products, services and improved clinical practice related to *** prevention, early detection, diagnosis and treatment.
The International *** Genome Consortium (ICGC) has been organized to launch and coordinate a large number of research projects that have the common aim of elucidating comprehensively the genomic changes present in many forms of cancers that contribute to the burden of disease in people throughout the world. The primary goals of the ICGC are to generate comprehensive catalogues of genomic abnormalities (somatic mutations, abnormal expression of genes, epigenetic modifications) in tumors from 50 different *** types and/or subtypes which are of clinical and societal importance across the globe and make the data available to the entire research community as rapidly as possible, and with minimal restrictions, to accelerate research into the causes and control of ***. The ICGC facilitates communication among the members and provides a forum for coordination with the objective of maximizing efficiency among the scientists working to understand, treat, and prevent these diseases.
