TCGA: The Cancer Genome Atlas Project (2005-2017)
- From The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) consortium, a large-scale collaboration initiated and supported by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) and National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI).
Identifying the changes in each cancer’s complete set of DNA – its genome – and understanding how such changes interact to drive the disease will lay the foundation for improving cancer prevention, early detection and treatment.
