What are some key initiatives by NHGRI in Cancer research?
One of the pivotal initiatives by NHGRI is the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), a comprehensive project that maps the genetic changes in different cancer types. Another significant program is the Clinical Sequencing Evidence-Generating Research (CSER)), which integrates genomic sequencing into clinical care. These initiatives aim to understand the genetic basis of cancer and translate this knowledge into clinical practice.
