Projects

 ICT for Biomedical Global Research Collaboration (ICTBiomed)

The goal of the ICTBiomed project is to create an informatics platform leveraging the joint capacity of global research community in order to provide an environment for comprehensive cancer research based on tools that had emerged in scientific communities across the world.

 International Cancer Knowledge Alliance (ICKA)

ICKA’s mission is to enable and facilitate the generation, use and reuse of knowledge in India via the country’s own institutions, people, technology and data; and to address dimensions of the Indian cancer problem in a way that is comprehensive, scalable, sustainable and affordable.

 Oral Cancer Global Network

To develop a clinical trial for the Oral Cancer Global Network (OCGN) focusing on early diagnosis of potentially malignant /high risk oral mucosal lesions (WHO definition: SIN III) and malignant lesions, including the establishment of the research team, the development of tools for data management and oversight of the research, the development of a trial design and other essential elements of the study, such as the protocol, recruitment strategies, and procedure manuals; and to collect feasibility data.

 TELESYNERGY®

​TELESYNERGY® is the use of equipment and communication devices for long-distance collaboration between medical institutions. TELESYNERGY® can be used for any activity that relates to the education, prevention, detection, diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of any patient’s condition in any medical field. Developed by National Institutes of Health scientists and engineers to facilitate communications between cancer researchers around the world.
