What are Some Successful Examples of Data Sharing Initiatives?
There are several notable initiatives and platforms that exemplify successful data sharing in cancer research:
1. The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA): A comprehensive project that has cataloged genetic mutations responsible for various types of cancer. 2. Genomic Data Commons (GDC): A data sharing platform that provides access to large-scale genomic data for cancer research. 3. Cancer Moonshot Initiative: An initiative aimed at accelerating cancer research through enhanced data sharing and collaboration. 4. International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC): A consortium that promotes the sharing of genomic data to understand cancer genetics globally.
