What caBIG tools are available to help manage biospecimens?
The NCI cancer Biomedical Informatics Grid, or caBIG , supports the development of informatics tools designed for biospecimen resources through the Tissue Banks and Pathology Tools Workspace (https://cabig.nci.nih.gov/workspaces/TBPT). These informatics tools include caTissue Suite, a comprehensive biospecimen management tool for inventory, tracking, and basic pathology and custom annotation, as well as the cancer Text Information Extraction System, or caTIES, which allows extraction of structured data from free-text pathology reports. Together, these tools will improve the capability for researchers across the country to select and access appropriate samples for their research.
