Cancer and the Human Tumor Atlas Network Infographic

Information mapped in human tumor atlases will provide a comprehensive understanding of the ecosystem of tumors and show important transitions in cancer.

The construction of human tumor atlases will provide a more comprehensive understanding of the ecosystems of tumors at the macro- and the micro-level. NCI has established the Human Tumor Atlas Network (HTAN) for this purpose. Mapping the landscape of tumors will help identify biological markers of disease progression and treatment resistance and inform the development of precision risk-stratification, prevention, screening, diagnostic, and treatment strategies. NCI has established HTAN, which will focus ini — View and Print Infographic
