The Center for Cancer Genomics Data Portal Launches

The new Data Portal for the Center for Cancer Genomics (CCG) was launched today. CCG is a recently created center to unify NCI’s activities in cancer genomics. The CCG Data Portal will serve as the access point for data generated by CCG programs, collaborations or member offices. Data are available for The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), The Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia (CCLE), Therapeutically Applicable Research to Generate Effective Treatments (TARGET), Cancer Genome Characterization Initiative (CGCI), Cancer Target Discovery and Development (CTD2), and will soon be available for The Adjuvant Lung Cancer Enrichment Marker Identification and Sequencing Trial (ALChEMIST ) and The Exceptional Responders initiative. Lower level sequence data will continue to be available at the Cancer Genomics Hub and NCBI’s database of Genotypes and Phenotypes (dbGaP).

A recent Lancet study demonstrated that AI implementation led to a 29% increase in cancer detection, with no increase in false positives and a reduced workload compared to radiologists without AI assistance. While emerging evidence supports AI’s potential to enhance cancer detection in mammography screening and reduce screen-reading workload, further research is needed to fully understand its clinical impact.

Remembering Brady Davis

By Sorena Nadaf • November 11, 2024

With heavy hearts, we remember and honor Brady Davis, whose sudden passing leaves an immense void. Brady was a devoted supporter and invaluable contributor to the Cancer Center Informatics Society, dedicating countless hours to advancing our mission and strengthening our community. His expertise, enthusiasm, and unwavering commitment shaped our initiatives and inspired everyone fortunate enough to work alongside him. Brady’s legacy will live on through the progress he championed and the connections he fostered. We extend our deepest sympathies to his family, friends, and all who knew him. He will be greatly missed. In honor of Brady’s legacy, Ci4CC will be forming a committee to explore meaningful ways to memorialize him within our society for years to come. We plan to announce the committee’s recommendations at our Spring Summit in San Diego, CA, on March 31, 2025. Please find his obituary here , and visit his memorial page on MyKeeper to leave a tribute.
