Early-Stage Development of Informatics Technologies for Cancer Research and Management
Funds early-stage development of new cancer-research software tools, from first prototype to their first real users.
Good cancer research increasingly depends on software — for imaging analysis, genomic pipelines, clinical data, population studies — and most of it never gets past the lab that built it. This notice is the early rung of the fix: money to build the first working version of a tool, before it has any track record.
It sits inside the NCI's Informatics Technology for Cancer Research (ITCR) Program, an…
Early-stage development of informatics tools for cancer research — new tool development or substantial rework of an existing tool for a new use, from initial prototype through first dissemination — spanning cancer biology, treatment, diagnosis, early detection, risk assessment, prevention, control and epidemiology, with a plan for engaging end users built into the development process.
