Genomics Gene Regulation

Cancer Genome Sequencing

Cancer genome sequencing identifies alterations in cancer that contribute to cancer growth, metastasis, and recurrence. Learn about sequencing programs like TCGA and TARGET.
NCI's Genomic Data Commons Portal

The Genomic Data Commons

The GDC is a source of high-quality, standardized molecular and clinical data for the research community. The platform also provides analysis tools and promotes data sharing for researchers.

Human Cancer Models Initiative

HCMI is developing patient-derived organoids, neurospheres, and other next-generation cancer models that are fully characterized for the research community.

Cancer Target Discovery and Development

The "C-T-D-Squared" Network bridges the gap between structural genomics and the development of effective therapeutics by utilizing high-throughput informatic and experimental approaches.

A Tribute to Daniela Gerhard

Daniela Gerhard was known for her robust work ethic and love for science, but she also cared deeply for colleagues and cancer patients. Colleagues reflect on the life of Dr. Gerhard on episode 5 of the podcast.

A Data Sharing Platform to Promote Precision Oncology: The Genomic Data Commons

By providing an expandable data sharing platform to the cancer research community, the GDC aims to accelerate discoveries in cancer research and promote precision medicine in oncology.
