Since its inception in 2004, the NCI’s Center for Strategic Scientific Initiatives (CSSI) has focused on its mission to create and implement exploratory programs focused on the development and integration of advanced technologies, trans-disciplinary approaches, infrastructures, and standards to accelerate the creation of publicly available, broadly accessible, multi-dimensional data, knowledge, and tools for cancer research.
Given the range of disciplines supported by Center initiatives and the rapid pace of scientific findings, we decided to convene a “Science Day” meeting where advances in various research endeavors supported by the Center can be shared. This meeting will focus on sharing ongoing, unpublished work of CSSI-supported investigators, thus facilitating additional scientific conversations amongst these researchers and NCI/CSSI program staff.
The meeting itself will open with an overview of CSSI by Dr. Douglas Lowy followed by sessions developed by each office within CSSI. Each session will have presentations followed by time for audience engagement and participation.
