Sustained Support for Informatics Technologies for Cancer Research and Management

Funds the running costs and continued relevance of a cancer informatics tool that researchers already depend on.

The two other notices in this programme build things. This one keeps them running, which is the part research funding usually refuses to pay for.

The target is existing, widely adopted informatics tools and resources. What the money covers is sustaining operations, and maintaining and evolving the scientific relevance of the resource so it does not quietly go stale.

The scope of what those resou

Sustained operation, maintenance and continued scientific relevance of existing, widely adopted informatics tools and resources supporting acquisition, management, analysis and dissemination of data and knowledge across cancer biology, treatment, diagnosis, early detection, risk assessment, prevention, control and epidemiology, with mechanisms for assessing value and engaging the user community. Clinical trials are optional.
