Human Cancer Models Initiative at AACR Annual Meeting 2023
, by Cindy Kyi
Human Cancer Models Initiative (HCMI) is a community resource of next-generation cancer models and associated data.
Several opportunities to learn about organoids and other next-generation cancer models will be available at this year’s AACR Annual Meeting. CCG staff will be holding several events to discuss the Human Cancer Models Initiative (HCMI), NCI’s program that is generating hundreds of patient-derived models along with associated clinical, biospecimen and molecular data for the research community. Be sure to check out other sessions and events featuring NCI leaders and experts.
