What this research studies
This project focuses on establishing an Administrative Core that will enhance the coordination and integration of cancer research activities at the Fox Chase Cancer Center. It aims to facilitate collaboration among researchers by providing essential support such as fiscal management, clerical assistance, and ensuring scientific rigor in research processes. The Core will also promote communication and transparency among participating members and will engage with other cancer research centers to foster a multidisciplinary approach to cancer agent discovery. By organizing workshops and meetings, the Core will help streamline research efforts and improve the overall productivity of cancer research initiatives.
