What is the role of the NCI in caBIG®?
caBIG® is a key initiative of the NCI. As a government agency, NCI stewards caBIG® so that the needs of the entire cancer community are addressed and represented. Through its coordination, the NCI ensures that caBIG® is defined by participant cancer community members and built with their collaboration. The NCI Center for Bioinformatics (NCICB) provides active management of caBIG® and works in collaboration with partners in the public, private, and academic sectors.
