This forecasted opportunity from the National Cancer Institute (NCI), part of the NIH, aims to continue support for the Coordinating Center (CC) of the Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC) Consortium. The CC is responsible for organizing and coordinating research activities focused on prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and resistance mechanisms in SCLC. Key roles include managing consortium administrative activities, centralized databases, tissue banking, biostatistics and bioinformatics support, model repositories, and communications infrastructure. The CC also supports young investigators and provides resources to the broader research community.
